Small-molecule amphiphiles such as aspirin have unique properties arising from a combination of an aromatic hydrophobic part and a hydrophilic part. We show that crystals of aspirin are capable of generating convective flows at the air aqueous interface from both Marangoni effects (through weak surface activity) and capillarity (surface deformations). The flow-driven motion of millimeter-sized crystals was found to depend on the presence of other ions in solution as well as the distance and orientation of the crystals. The interactions lead to the formation of groups of two or more crystals that also underwent motion. The convective flows created by small amphiphile crystals might be exploited in the dynamic self-organization of particles at interfaces.
