Abstract
N-Acetylglucosamine (NAG) is a significant novel functional monosaccharide with a wide range of potential applications, such as in the medical and cosmetic fields. A gravimetric technique was used to assess the solubility of NAG in water, methanol, N,N-dimethylformamide, water + methanol, water + n-propanol, water + N,N-dimethylformamide, and water + acetonitrile at temperatures ranging from 283.15 to 323.15 K. The outcomes of the experiment demonstrated that the temperature and water content were positively correlated with the solubility of NAG in four experimental binary solvents. The order of solubility in the four aqueous solvent mixtures is water + DMF > water + methanol > water + n-propanol > water + acetonitrile. The solubility data was well correlated using the modified Apelblat model, the CNIBS/R-K model, and the Apelblat-Jouyban-Acree model. Experimental data from NAG will help guide the design of cooling and dissolution in crystallization processes.
