- Marangoni Flowers and the Evil Eye: Overhead Presentations of Marangoni Flow
  Donald W. Mundell
  Journal of Chemical Education2009 86 (7), 833
  Intermolecular forces and surface tension gradients in solutions lead to remarkable flows, known as Marangoni flows, where liquid flows from a region of low surface tension towards higher surface tension. Details of these flows, not visible to the naked ...

- Stilling Waves with Ordered Molecular Monolayers
  Ed Vitz , James H. Maynard
  Journal of Chemical Education2008 85 (8), 1064
  A demonstration of the damping effect of an oil monolayer on water waves is described. The history of this remarkable demonstration—with a 2000 (or more) year span—and a brief explanation in terms of the properties of water and the monolayer are ...
