71. Intermolecular forces between fluorine atoms are unfavorable because of the extreme high electronegativity of fluorine. Therefore, instead of attractive interactions between neighboring flourine end groups F⋯H contacts frequently occur.

79. The measuring time is limited due to the onset of three-dimensional growth with time, which caused an increased friction by the additional layers. This perturbation can be reduced by decreasing of the concentration, but in this case the time which is necessary for the formation of the first monolayer is extremely high. In the present case, measuring times in the range of 1 - 2 h are typical.
