The mechanical properties of model air/water interfaces covered by poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgels depend on the microgels deformability or in other words on the amount of cross-linker added during synthesis. The study is carried out by measuring the apparent dilational, the compression and the shear moduli using three complementary methods: (1) the pendant drop method with perturbative areas, (2) the Langmuir trough compression, and (3) shear rheology using a double wall ring cell mounted onto a Langmuir through. In the range of surface coverages studied, the interfaces exhibit a solid-like behavior and elasticity goes through a maximum as a function of the surface pressure. This is observable whatever the investigation method. This maximum elasticity depends on the microgel deformability: the softer the microgels the higher the value of the moduli. The mechanical behavior of model interfaces is discussed, taking into account the core–shell structure of the particles and their packing at the interface.
