Binary mixtures of cholesterol and fully-condensed octakis[{2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl) etyl}dimethyl-silyloxy]octasilsesquioxane (OE-POSS) were characterized using Langmuir trough for obtaining surface pressure-area isotherms. The most characteristic feature of the mixed films is the presence of two collapse points on the isotherms. The first one is attributed to the collapse of less stable OE-POSS and it occurs at similar surface pressures for all compositions, while the second one corresponds to cholesterol collapse. Brewster angle microscopy observations confirmed the collapse behavior of the mixed film. Strong condensing effect was observed for the mean molecular areas dependence on cholesterol content in the film. Moreover, formation of microdomains of each component in the matrix of the other one was confirmed by BAM images. For the reasons of molecular structures and interactions a true mixed and homogenous film did not form in the systems considered. Phase separation was observed for all the compositions experimented. The lack of the interactions of OE-POSS with biomembrane components represented by cholesterol is beneficial for applications of OE-POSS in biomedical devices.
