Popis:	The surface pressure-area diagrams of double-chain fluorocarbon amphiphiles with different headgroup compositions show that the amphiphiles arrange almost perpendicularly to the water subphase and the structure of headgroups exerts significant influence on the amphiphile packing. Strong hydrogen bonding and weak electrostatic interaction favor the formation of stable monolayers. Perfluorooctanoic acid (FOA) cannot form monolayer at water/air interface and can only form liquid monolayer in subphase of calcium nitrate solution. Complete phase separation of palmitic acid and a fluorocarbon amphiphile with shorter hydrocarbon spacer group, 1, could be demonstrated in monolayers by using the phase rule of Crisp. The creation of phase-separated monolayers is possible when the monolayer is composed of a mixture of palmitic acid and a fluorocarbon amphiphile with longer hydrocarbon spacer group, 2. It can be suggested that the miscibility of hydrocarbon amphiphiles with fluorocarbon amphiphiles is determined by the hydrocarbon fraction of fluorocarbon amphiphiles.
