Abstract:
1. A method for preparing a device comprising a mineral support (MS) and bound thereto a Self Assembled Monolayer (SAM) of molecules having formula (Ibis): wherein: X represents an isocyanate function —N═C═O, E represents a straight alkyl chain comprising from 8 to 30 carbon atoms, and optionally comprises a bridge function selected from the group consisting of: —O—, —S—, —NH—, —COO—, and aryl; and X and Si are separated by a chain of at least 8 carbon atoms, wherein said method comprises the steps of reacting a mineral substrate (MS) comprising hydroxyl functions on its surface with a molecule of formula (I): in an aprotic solvent in the presence of a Lewis base.
