= Evaporation suppressing monolayers
{wiki=Evaporation_suppressing_monolayers}
Evaporation suppressing monolayers, often referred to in the context of "monolayer protective films" or "monolayer coatings," are thin layers of molecules that are spread over a liquid surface to reduce the rate of evaporation. These monolayers can consist of various materials, including surfactants, fatty acids, or specially designed amphiphilic molecules that can position themselves at the interface of the liquid and air.
