Abstract
⺠We studied lipid monolayers spread on water and silica nanoparticle dispersions. ⺠The surface pressure response to area compression-expansion is modified. ⺠Partially hydrophobic nanoparticle-lipid complexes are incorporated in the layer. ⺠Nanoparticles hinder the lipids ordering and the condensed phase formation ⺠Different monolayer phase behavior and morphology are observed with particles.
