Neutron reflection is one of only a few characterization techniques which can be used to study buried interfaces in situ. While restricted to model samples, interfacial density and composition profiles can be obtained with a resolution of {approx}5 {angstrom} using isotopic substitution (typically H/D for organic materials). We are using neutron reflection to address several problems of fundamental importance to the durability of organic/inorganic interphases. One important focus of this study is water adsorption within interphases with and without coupling agents. From the time and temperature dependence of moisture uptake and removal in vacuum, information regarding the nature of the interaction of water with the interphase species can be obtained
