Abstract
Common energy-intensive processes applied in oral solid dosage development, such as milling, sieving, blending, compaction, etc. generate particles with surface and bulk crystal disorder. An intriguing aspect of the generated crystal disorder is its evolution and repercussion on the physical- and chemical stabilities of drugs. In this review, we firstly examine the existing literature on crystal disorder and its implications on solid-state stability of pharmaceuticals. Secondly, we discuss the key aspects related to the generation and evolution of crystal disorder, dynamics of the disordered/amorphous phase, analytical techniques to measure/quantify them, and approaches to model the disordering propensity from first principles. The main objective of this compilation is to provide special impetus to predict or model the chemical degradation(s) resulting from processing-induced manifestation in bulk solid manufacturing. Finally, a generic workflow is proposed that can be useful to investigate the relevance of crystal disorder on the degradation of pharmaceuticals during stability studies. The present review will cater to the requirements for developing physically- and chemically stable drugs, thereby enabling early and rational decision-making during candidate screening and in assessing degradation risks associated with formulations and processing.

Abstract
![]()
In this paper, several
experimental techniques [X-ray diffraction,
differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry, Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy, and broad-band dielectric spectroscopy]
have been applied to characterize the structural and thermal properties,
H-bonding pattern, and molecular dynamics of amorphous bosentan (BOS)
obtained by vitrification and cryomilling of the monohydrate crystalline
form of this drug. Samples prepared by these two methods were found
to be similar with regard to their internal structure, H-bonding scheme,
and structural (α) dynamics in the supercooled liquid state.
However, based on the analysis of α-relaxation times (dielectric
measurements) predicted for temperatures below the glass-transition
temperature (Tg), as well as DSC thermograms,
it was concluded that the cryoground sample is more aged (and probably
more physically stable) compared to the vitrified one. Interestingly,
such differences in physical properties turned out to be reflected
in the lower intrinsic dissolution rate of BOS obtained by cryomilling
(in the first 15 min of dissolution test) in comparison to the vitrified
drug. Furthermore, we showed that cryogrinding of the crystalline
BOS monohydrate leads to the formation of a nearly anhydrous amorphous
sample. This finding, different from that reported by Megarry et al.
[2011, 346, 1061−106421492830] for trehalose (TRE), was revealed on the
basis of infrared and thermal measurements. Finally, two various hypotheses
explaining water removal upon cryomilling have been discussed in the
manuscript.

Abstract
In this paper, we explore the strategy increasingly used to improve the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble crystalline drugs by formulating their amorphous solid dispersions. We focus on the potential application of a low molecular weight excipient octaacetyl-maltose (acMAL) to prepare physically stable amorphous solid dispersions with ibuprofen (IBU) aimed at enhancing water solubility of the drug compared to that of its crystalline counterpart. We thoroughly investigate global and local molecular dynamics, thermal properties, and physical stability of the IBU+acMAL binary systems by using broadband dielectric spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry as well as test their water solubility and dissolution rate. The obtained results are extensively discussed by analyzing several factors considered to affect the physical stability of amorphous systems, including those related to the global mobility, such as plasticization/antiplasticization effects, the activation energy, fragility parameter, and the number of dynamically correlated molecules as well as specific intermolecular interactions like hydrogen bonds, supporting the latter by density functional theory calculations. The observations made for the IBU+acMAL binary systems and drawn recommendations give a better insight into our understanding of molecular mechanisms governing the physical stability of amorphous solid dispersions.

Physical Stability and Viscoelastic Properties of Co-Amorphous Ezetimibe/Simvastatin System. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2019; 12:ph12010040.

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to examine the physical stability as well as viscoelastic properties of the binary amorphous ezetimibe⁻simvastatin system. According to our knowledge, this is the first time that such an amorphous composition is prepared and investigated. The tendency toward re-crystallization of the amorphous ezetimibe⁻simvastatin system, at both standard storage and elevated temperature conditions, have been studied by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD). Our investigations have revealed that simvastatin remarkably improves the physical stability of ezetimibe, despite the fact that it works as a plasticizer. Pure amorphous ezetimibe, when stored at room temperature, begins to re-crystallize after 14 days after amorphization. On the other hand, the ezetimibe-simvastatin binary mixture (at the same storage conditions) is physically stable for at least 1 year. However, the devitrification of the binary amorphous composition was observed at elevated temperature conditions (T = 373 K). Therefore, we used a third compound to hinder the re-crystallization. Finally, both the physical stability as well as viscoelastic properties of the ternary systems containing different concentrations of the latter component have been thoroughly investigated.

Abstract
In this paper, a novel approach to determine stable concentration in API-polymer systems is presented. As a model, binary amorphous mixtures flutamide (FL) drug with a copolymer Kollidon VA64 (PVP/VA) have been used. It is worthwhile to note that finding an effective method to achieve this goal is a matter of great importance because physical stability of the amorphous pharmaceuticals is the key issue that is investigated worldwide. Due to the fact that molecular dynamics was found to be the crucial factor affecting physical stability of disordered pharmaceuticals, we examined it for both neat FL and its PVP/VA mixtures by means of broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS). Thorough investigation of the impact of polymeric additive on the molecular mobility of disordered FL reveals unusual, previously unreported behavior. Namely, simultaneously with the beginning of the recrystallization process, we observe some transformation from unstable supersaturated concentration of investigated mixture to the different, unknown concentration of FL-PVP/VA. Observed, during BDS experiment, transformation enables us to determine the limiting, highly physically stable concentration of FL in PVP/VA polymer (saturated solution), which is equivalent to FL + 41% wt. of PVP/VA. The described high physical stability of this unveiled system has been confirmed by means of long-term XRD measurements. According to our knowledge, this is the first time when such a behavior has been observed by means of BDS.

Abstract
In this article we study the effectiveness of three well-known polymers: inulin, Soluplus, and PVP in stabilizing the amorphous form of nimesulide (NMS) drug. The recrystallization tendency of pure drug as well as measured drug-polymer systems were examined at isothermal conditions by broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) and at nonisothermal conditions by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Our investigation has shown that the crystallization half-life time of pure NMS at 328 K is equal to 33 min. We found that this time can be prolonged to 40 years after adding 20% w/w PVP to NMS. This polymer proved to be the best NMS stabilizer, while the worst stabilization effect was exhibited by inulin. Additionally, our DSC, BDS, and FTIR studies indicate that for suppression of NMS recrystallization in the NMS-PVP system, the two mechanisms are responsible: the polymeric steric hindrances and the antiplastization effect exerted by the excipient.

Abstract
In recent years, there is a growing interest in improving the physicochemical stability of amorphous pharmaceutical solids due to their very promising applications to manufacture medicines characterized by a better water solubility, and consequently by a higher dissolution rate than those of their crystalline counterparts. In this review article, we show that the molecular mobility investigated both in the supercooled liquid and glassy states is the crucial factor required to understand molecular mechanisms that govern the physical stability of amorphous drugs. We demonstrate that pharmaceuticals can be thoroughly examined by means of the broadband dielectric spectroscopy, which is a very useful experimental technique to explore different relaxation processes and crystallization kinetics as well. Such studies conducted in the wide temperature and pressure ranges provide data needed in searching correlations between properties of molecular dynamics and crystallization process, which are aimed at developing effective and efficient methods for stabilizing amorphous drugs.

Abstract
This work aims at increasing solubility and dissolution rate of ziprasidone free base-Biopharmaceutics Classifaction System (BCS) class II compound. The authors describe a practical approach to amorphization and highlight problems that may occur during the development of formulations containing amorphous ziprasidone, which was obtained by grinding in high-energy planetary ball mills or cryogenic mills. The release of ziprasidone free base from the developed formulations was compared to the reference drug product containing crystalline ziprasidone hydrochloride-Zeldox® hard gelatin capsules. All preparations were investigated using compendial tests (USP apparatuses II and IV) as well as novel, biorelevant dissolution tests. The novel test methods simulate additional elements of mechanical and hydrodynamic stresses, which have an impact on solid oral dosage forms, especially during gastric emptying. This step may prove to be particularly important for many formulations of BCS class II drugs that are often characterized by narrow absorption window, such as ziprasidone. The dissolution rate of the developed ziprasidone free base preparations was found to be comparable or even higher than in the case of the reference formulation containing ziprasidone hydrochloride, whose water solubility is about 400 times higher than its free base.

Abstract
Protic ionic liquids (PILs) are key materials for a wide range of emerging technologies. In particular, these systems have long been envisioned as promising candidates for fuel cells. Therefore, in recent years special attention has been devoted to thorough studies of these compounds. Amongst others, dielectric properties of PILs at ambient and elevated pressure have become the subject of intense research. The reason for this lies in the role of broadband dielectric spectroscopy in recognizing the conductivity mechanism in protic ionic systems. In this paper, we summarize the dielectric results of various PILs reflecting recent advances in this field.

Abstract
Dielectric, calorimetric, and x-ray diffraction measurements were carried out on α-, β-, and γ-cyclodextrins, which are cyclic saccharides built by, respectively, six, seven, and eight glucose units connected via glycosidic linkage. Differential scanning calorimetry measurements indicated that each carbohydrate has a melting temperature located much above the temperature at which thermal decomposition begins. Moreover, calorimetric data revealed that it is possible to completely dehydrate each cyclodextrin by annealing them above 413 K. Unfortunately, it is impossible to obtain amorphous forms of cyclodextrin by simple cooling of the melt. Thus, a solid state amorphization method has been applied. X-ray diffraction studies demonstrated that by ball milling at room temperature we are able to obtain completely amorphous cyclodextrins. Finally, dielectric measurements were carried out to probe molecular dynamics in the amorphous state of cyclodextrins. It was found that there is only one relaxation process in amorphous hydrated cyclodextrins, while in dried samples two secondary relaxations are present. Moreover, we have shown that water has an enormous effect on the dynamics of both relaxation modes, i.e., with increasing content of water, the activation energy of the slow mode decreases, while that evaluated for the fast mode increases. We were not able to follow the dynamics of the structural relaxation process, because glass transition temperatures of amorphous cyclodextrins were found to lie above thermal degradation points.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of cryogrinding on chemical stability of the diuretic agent furosemide and its mixtures with selected excipients. METHODS Furosemide was ground at liquid nitrogen temperature for 30, 60, 120 and 180 min. Mixtures of furosemide-PVP and furosemide-inulin (1:1) were milled under cryogenic conditions. Materials were analyzed by XRD, UPLC, MS and NMR. RESULTS Upon increasing the milling time, a significant build-up of an unidentified impurity 1, probably the main degradation product, was noticed. Cogrinding of furosemide with PVP and inulin worsened chemical stabilization of the pharmaceutical. The main degradation product formed upon cryomilling was subsequently identified as 4-chloro-5-sulfamoylanthranilic acid (CSA). Based on some theoretical considerations involving specific milling conditions, the milling intensity and an expected specific milling dose have been calculated. Results indicate that cryogenic grinding is capable to initiate mechanically induced decomposition of furosemide. CONCLUSIONS Cryogenic grinding can activate and accelerate not only structural changes (solid state amorphization) but also chemical decomposition of pharmaceuticals. A cryogenic milling device should be considered as a chemical reactor, where under favourable conditions chemical reactions could be mechanically initiated.
