Physical properties crystallinity

Instability attributable to excipient-mediated water distribution in solids and powders has been explained by excipient physical properties. " Crystalline materials will not uptake moisture until the deliquescent point is reached. In contrast, amorphous excipients will absorb water until their glass transition temperatures fall below the ambient temperature when the mobility of the molecules has increased so much that excipient crystallization will occur to expel the absorbed water from the crystal lattice. Before crystal-... 

Oxidation of polymer is accompanied by the change of their structure - physical properties - crystallinity, molecular mobility, strength and so on. Orientation of crystalline regions is disturbed in stressed samples the number of crystals with definite space orientation of crystal lattice axes decreases, the form of the curve of crystal distribution axes in respect to orientation axis changes. Change for the worse of crystals orientation is explained by stress relief, occurring in polymer at the expense of oxidative destruction of macromolecules in amorphous intercrystalline region [301]. 

The poor solubility of dimethyl-glyoxime complexes has always restricted study of their interesting physical properties (crystalline Ni(dmgH)2is a familiar red gravimetric precipitate as well as a one-dimensional electrical conductor). We have reported the synthesis of a series of freely soluble carbocyclic bis-dioxime complexes of structural types 1 to 4. 

The material life time can be calculated by means various experimental procedures, which provide relevant information obtained by stmctural modifications. The long-term stability is estimated for the preservation of upper-limit performances and longest operation periods over several degradation cycles with high irradiation fluxes. In fact, the durability is expressed by the reliability of material behavior, which is described by the failure rate. The definition of durability must also include the condition of testing irradiance, duration, complementary environmental factors, physical properties (crystallinity, hardness, viscosity, diffusion constant), homogeneity, presence of antioxidant, especially for engineering polymers [24]. 

Schemes for classifying surfactants are based upon physical properties or upon functionality. Charge is tire most prevalent physical property used in classifying surfactants. Surfactants are charged or uncharged, ionic or nonionic. Charged surfactants are furtlier classified as to whetlier tire amphipatliic portion is anionic, cationic or zwitterionic. Anotlier physical classification scheme is based upon overall size and molecular weight. Copolymeric nonionic surfactants may reach sizes corresponding to 10 000-20 000 Daltons. Physical state is anotlier important physical property, as surfactants may be obtained as crystalline solids, amoriDhous pastes or liquids under standard conditions. The number of tailgroups in a surfactant has recently become an important parameter. Many surfactants have eitlier one or two hydrocarbon tailgroups, and recent advances in surfactant science include even more complex assemblies [7, 8 and 9].

Glass is the name given to any amorphous solid produced when a liquid solidifies. Glasses are non-crystalline and isotropic, i.e. their physical properties are independent of the direction in which they are measured. When a glass is heated, it does not melt at a fixed temperature but gradually softens until a liquid is obtained. 

Physical properties. All are colourless crystalline solids except formic acid, acetic acid (m.p. 18 when glacial) and lactic acid (m.p. 18°, usually a syrup). Formic acid (b.p. loo ") and acetic acid (b.p. 118 ) are the only members which are readily volatile lactic acid can be distilled only under reduced pressure. Formic and acetic acids have characteristic pungent odours cinnamic acid has a faint, pleasant and characteristic odour. 

Physical properties. Majority are liquids except p toluidine and 1- and 2-naphthylamine. All are colourless when pure, but rapidly darken on exposure to air and light. All are very sparingly soluble in water, but dissolve readily in dilute mineral acids (except the naphthyl-amines, which are only moderately soluble in adds). They form colourless crystalline salts e.g., CjHjNH2,HCl) which are soluble in water these aqueous solutions usually have an add reaction owing to hydrolysis, and give the reactions of both the amine and the acid from which they are derived. Addition of alkali to the acid solution liberates the amine. 

Physical Properties All colourless odourless crystalline solids. Acetanilide,CH3CONHCflH5,andbenzanilide,C,H6CONHCeH6 are both sparingly soluble in cold water, but acetanilide has the greater solubility in hot water. 

Physical Properties. Glycine is a colourless crystalline solid soluble in water. Owing to the almost equal opposing effects of the amino and the carboxylic groups. its aqueous solution is almost neutral (actually, slightly acidic to phenolphthalein) and glycine is therefore known as a neutral ampholyte. f It exhibits both acidic and basic properties. 

Physical Properties. Colourless crystalline solid, soluble in boiling water, very sparingly soluble in cold water crystallises 2H2O. The strongly acidic — SO3H group suppresses the normal basic properties of the — NHj group the acid therefore dissolves readily in alkalis, but not in dilute mineral acids. 

Physical Properties. All heavier than, and insoluble in water. All liquids, except iodoform, CHI3, which is a yellow crystalline solid with a characteristic odour. The remainder are colourless liquids when pure ethyl iodide, CjHjI, and iodobenzene, CjHgl, are, however, usually yellow or even brown in colour. Methyl iodide, CH3I, ethyl bromide, CgH Br, ethyl iodide, chloroform, CHCI3, and carbon tetrachloride, CCI4, have sweetish odours, that of chloroform being particularly characteristic. 

Because of the chemical inertness of the paraffin hydrocarbons and of the closely related cycZoparaffins, no satisfactory crystalline derivatives can be prepared. Reliance is therefore placed upon the physical properties (boding point, density, and refractive index) of the redistilled samples. These are collected together in Table III,6. 

The low reactivity of aliphatic ethers renders the problem of the preparation of suitable crystalline derivatives a somewhat difficult one. Increased importance is therefore attached to the physical properties (boding point, density and refractive index) as a means for providing preliminary information. There are, however, two reactions based upon the cleavage of the ethers which are useful for characterisation. 

The physical properties of a typical amino acid such as glycine suggest that it is a very polar substance much more polar than would be expected on the basis of its formula tion as H2NCH2CO2H Glycine is a crystalline solid it does not melt but on being heated It eventually decomposes at 233°C It is very soluble m water but practically insoluble m nonpolar organic solvents These properties are attributed to the fact that the stable form of glycine is a zwittenon, or inner salt... 

Butynediol. Butynediol, 2-butyne-l,4-diol, [110-65-6] was first synthesized in 1906 by reaction of acetylene bis(magnesium bromide) with paraformaldehyde (43). It is available commercially as a crystalline soHd or a 35% aqueous solution manufactured by ethynylation of formaldehyde. Physical properties are Hsted in Table 2. 

The most important polyhydric alcohols are shown in Figure 1. Each is a white soHd, ranging from the crystalline pentaerythritols to the waxy trimethylol alkyls. The trihydric alcohols are very soluble in water, as is ditrimethylol-propane. Pentaerythritol is moderately soluble and dipentaerythritol and tripen taerythritol are less soluble. Table 1 Hsts the physical properties of these alcohols. Pentaerythritol and trimethyl olpropane have no known toxic or irritating effects (1,2). Finely powdered pentaerythritol, however, may form explosive dust clouds at concentrations above 30 g/m in air. The minimum ignition temperature is 450°C (3). 

Fiber stmcture is a dual or a balanced stmcture. Neither a completely amorphous stmcture nor a perfectly crystalline stmcture provides the balance of physical properties required in fibers. The formation and processing of fibers is designed to provide an optimal balance in terms of both stmcture and properties. Excellent discussions of the stmcture of fiber-forming polymers and general methods of the stmcture characterization are available (28—31). 

Anhydrous aluminum triduotide, A1F., is a white crystalline soHd. Physical properties are Hsted ia Table 2. Aluminum duotide is spatingly soluble ia water (0.4%) and iasoluble ia dilute mineral acids as well as organic acids at ambient temperatures, but when heated with concentrated sulfuric acid, HF is hberated, and with strong alkah solutions, aluminates are formed. A1F. is slowly attacked by fused alkahes with the formation of soluble metal duotides and aluminate. A series of double salts with the duotides of many metals and with ammonium ion can be made by precipitation or by soHd-state reactions. 

Modified ETEE is less dense, tougher, and stiffer and exhibits a higher tensile strength and creep resistance than PTEE, PEA, or EEP resins. It is ductile, and displays in various compositions the characteristic of a nonlinear stress—strain relationship. Typical physical properties of Tef2el products are shown in Table 1 (24,25). Properties such as elongation and flex life depend on crystallinity, which is affected by the rate of crysta11i2ation values depend on fabrication conditions and melt cooling rates. 

Physical Properties. Pure, anhydrous lactic acid is a white, crystalline soHd with a low melting poiat. However, it is difficult to prepare the pure anhydrous form of lactic acid generally, it is available as a dilute or concentrated aqueous solution. The properties of lactic acid and its derivatives have been reviewed (6). A few important physical and thermodynamic properties from this reference are summarized ia Table 1. 

Many of the physical properties are not affected by the optical composition, with the important exception of the melting poiat of the crystalline acid, which is estimated to be 52.7—52.8°C for either optically pure isomer, whereas the reported melting poiat of the racemic mixture ranges from 17 to 33°C (6). The boiling poiat of anhydrous lactic acid has been reported by several authors it was primarily obtained duriag fractionation of lactic acid from its self-esterification product, the dimer lactoyUactic acid [26811-96-1]. The difference between the boiling poiats of racemic and optically active isomers of lactic acid is probably very small (6). The uv spectra of lactic acid and dilactide [95-96-5] which is the cycHc anhydride from two lactic acid molecules, as expected show no chromophores at wavelengths above 250 nm, and lactic acid and dilactide have extinction coefficients of 28 and 111 at 215 nm and 225 nm, respectively (9,10). The iafrared spectra of lactic acid and its derivatives have been extensively studied and a summary is available (6). 

Physical Properties. Mahc acid crystallines from aqueous solutions as white, translucent, anhydrous crystal. The S(—) isomer melts at 100-103°C (1) and the R(+) isomer at 98-99°C (2). On heating, D,L-mahc acid decomposes at ca 180°C by forming fumaric acid and maleic anhydride. Under normal conditions, malic acid is stable under conditions of high humidity, it is hygroscopic. 

The physical properties of any polyisoprene depend not only on the microstmctural features but also on macro features such as molecular weight, crystallinity, linearity or branching of the polymer chains, and degree of cross-linking. For a polymer to be capable of crystallization, it must have long sequences where the stmcture is completely stereoregular. These stereoregular sequences must be linear stmctures composed exclusively of 1,4-, 1,2-, or 3,4-isoprene units. If the units are 1,4- then they must be either all cis or all trans. If 1,2- or 3,4- units are involved, they must be either syndiotactic or isotactic. In all cases, the monomer units must be linked in the head-to-tail manner (85). 

Physical Properties. Dimeric ketenes are colorless to dark brown Hquids or crystalline soHds with a broad range of melting and boiling points. Table 2 Hsts examples of dimeric ketenes and thioketenes.
