Abstract
The rheology of fluids at interfaces differs considerably from that in the bulk. Differences depend in part on the nature of the surface (especially the strength and uniformity of adsorption) and in part on the chemical makeup of the fluids themselves. This review emphasizes the shear rheology of fluid films of thickness 15-100 Ångstroms. Differences from the bulk behavior are more prominent, the thinner the film. Ultimately a solid-like response to shear is observed. These findings show that one needs to develop a new intuition about the flow of even the simplest liquids, when one dimension of the flow is comparable to the size of the molecule. These new notions are not intuitive extrapolations of bulk properties.
