Mechanical activation has become a phenomenon of general significance in pharmaceutics. This report describes the extent of activation induced by relevant processes. With the use of the Eyring equation the transformation of structurally stored energy into chemical energy and the implied free enthalpy as well as the excess free enthalpy (activity) were evaluated from the rate of an indicator reaction. A comparison was made between different kinds of milling and tabletting with respect to pharmaceutical conditions. An optimization of these processes was derived.
The contribution of structural free space to the solvent power of water was examined by a systematic modification of the geometric factor. Gaps and holes, available to foreign molecule occupation, are thought to be filled at low concentrations (max. 1 %) of aliphatic alcohols. The effect upon solvency reached approximately 10%, which suggests that spatial parameters affect solvent power. The results demonstrate the importance of solvent purity in the dissolution process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
