Cover Story: Lactone-terminated alkanethiol adsorbates with five- and six-membered lactone groups, γ-COCnSH and δ-COCnSH (n = 11, 12), were employed to create self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold substrates that mimic the interfacial properties of commercially available poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and poly(glycolic acid) (PGA) surfaces. The results indicate that the lactone-terminated SAMs investigated in this study effectively mimic nanoscale polyester surfaces, enabling the exploration of interfacial properties of polyesters in the absence of swelling and/or surface reconstruction phenomena.
