and symmetric
stretching. Strong arachidic acid
Intensities related to
the alkyl chains tilted
considerably from the
surface normal.

-COOH, COOCH3

1700 (around) c=o stretching carboxylic group
(a doublet suggests arachidic acid
coexistence of cis
and trans configuration.)
(Also the frequency of the
bands position suggest
H-bonding. e.g. smaller
frequency stronger H-bond)

characteristic of C=C groups in epoxy
aromatic stretching. resin.

1470 to 1465 CH2 scissoring arachidic acid
(singlet hexagonal
subcell packing in
which each hydrocarbon
chain is freely rotated
around its long axis)

hydrocharbon chains
are packed alternatively)
