Very strong long range attractive forces between stable hydrophobic monolayers of a polymerized ammonium surfactant

Direct measurements of forces between stable hydrophobic monolayers are performed, revealing very long-range attraction which extends to a separation of 300 nm in pure water. The attraction decreases in the presence of NaBr, while the pull-off force changes only moderately.
