We report the interfacial properties of monolayers of Ag nanoparticles 10-50 nm in diameter formed at the toluene-water interface under steady as well as oscillatory shear. Strain amplitude sweep measurements carried out on the film reveal a shear thickening peak in the loss moduli (G") at large amplitudes followed by a power law decay of the storage (G') and loss moduli with exponents in the ratio 2:1. In the frequency sweep measurements at low frequencies, the storage modulus remains nearly independent of the angular frequency, whereas G" reveals a power law dependence with a negative slope, a behavior reminiscent of soft glassy systems.
