Adhesive and frictional forces between surfaces modified with self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and immersed insolvents were measured with chemical force microscopy as functions of surface functionality and solvent. Si/SiO2 substrates were modified with SAMs of alkylsiloxanes (SiCl3(CH2)(n)-X), and, gold-coated AFM tips were modified with SAMs of alkylthiolates (HS-(CH2)(n)-X). SAMs of alkylsiloxanes terminated in a methyl or oxidized vinyl group; SAMs of alkanethiolates terminated in a methyl or carboxyl group. Adhesive and frictional forces were measured in hexadecane, ethanol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol, and water. The work of adhesion (W) was calculated with the Johnson-Kendall-Roberts theory of adhesive contact. The JKR values agreed well with values derived from the Fowkes-van Oss-Chaudhury-Good surface tension model and from contact angle results. Calculated values of W for all combinations of contacting surfaces and solvents spanned two orders of magnitude, W correlated with the surface tension of the solvent for hydrophobic/hydrophobic interactions; hydrophilic/hydrophilic and hydrophobic/hydrophilic interactions were more complex. Friction forces were fit to a modified form of Amonton's law. For any solvent, friction coefficients were largest for the hydrophitic/hydrophilic contacting surfaces. The friction coefficient for any contacting pair Mras largest in hexadecane. In polar solvents, friction coefficients scaled with solvent polarity only for hydrophobic/hydrophobic contacting pairs.
