Abstract

Molecular dynamics simulations have been performed to investigate the adhesional forces acting on solid surfaces due to confined hydrocarbon molecules. The pull-off forces of the n-hexane monolayer are found to be larger than those of iso-hexane. The branched methyl group of iso-hexane decreases the pull-off forces, since it decreases the stability at the equilibrium geometry.
