Self-assembly of organic molecules at metal surfaces (2009, background): “Interestingly, the archetypical example of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), namely alkanethiols on Au(111) [24], involve a covalent sulphur–gold bond.”
Recent Advances in Protective Coatings for Cultural Heritage–An Overview (2020, background): “In order to improve the adhesion of this coating, the silane films are often applied as multilayer film, in which the first layer provides good adhesion to the metal surface, the second the protection, while the outer faces the environment [34,35].”
