Process for forming a film of a polymer.

摘要

A process for forming a built-up thin film of a high polymer which is inherently difficult of film formation by the Langmuir-Blodgett process. A high polymer is modified so as to enable film formation by the Langmuir-Blodgett process by introducing a substituent group for imparting a hydrophobic nature to a recurring unit of the high polymer, and the thus-modified high polymer is mixed with a known Langmuir-Blodgett film compound for film formation by the Langmuir-Blodgett process. A high polymer used in the present invention includes linear recurring units each of which is composed of an at least divalent first organic group R, having at least two carbon atoms and an at least divalent second organic group R<Sub>2</Sub> having at least two carbon atoms, the first organic group R, and the second organic group R<Sub>2</Sub> being connected with each other by a divalent bonding group; and at least one hydrocarbon-containing group R<Sub>3</Sub> which have 10 to 30 carbon atoms and optionally contain a substituent group, and which is covalently bonded to the same recurring units.
