How does pressure affect the molecular dynamics, intramolecular interactions, and the relationship between structural (α) and secondary (JG-β) relaxation above and below the glass transition temperature in binary mixtures of H-bonded API - probucol and acetylated saccharides? Eur J Pharm Sci 2021; 164:105894. [PMID: 34089820 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2021.105894] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2021] [Revised: 05/27/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
In this paper, the molecular dynamics as well as inter- and intramolecular interactions in the homogenous solid dispersions (SDs) of active pharmaceutical ingredient - probucol (PRO) with acetylated glucose (acGLU), acetylated sucrose (acSUC), and sucrose acetoisobutyrate (aibSUC), prepared in 5:1 molar ratio, have been investigated using broadband dielectric (BD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Importantly, high pressure dielectric measurements revealed that as for neat PRO, a breakdown of the isochronal structural (α) and JG-β exact superpositioning, due to increasing separation between both processes under compression, can also be detected in its mixtures with acetylated saccharides (acSACCHs). Furthermore, the analysis of temperature dependences of JG-β-relaxation times for PRO and PRO-acSACCH SDs at selected isobaric conditions indicated the increase in the cooperativity of the secondary process (reflected in the value of the activation entropy, ΔSβ) at elevated pressure in all systems. The mere addition of the small amount of excipient to neat PRO (p = 0.1 MPa) resulted in a greater value of ΔSβ (it was the most noticeable in the case of aibSUC). Further FTIR studies carried out on the pressure densified glasses of PRO, and binary mixtures suggested that the observed changes in the cooperativity of the JG-β-process, as well as the failure of the exact isochronal superpositioning of α- and JG-β relaxation times, are due to varying H-bond pattern in the examined single- and two-component systems at high compression/in the presence of saccharide.

Abstract
The Debye relaxation is the main signal in the dielectric measurements of monoalcohols arising from the hydrogen-bonded superstructures, but its physics remains to be cleared. In this work, a monoalcohol of 4-methyl-2-pentanol is studied using dielectric spectroscopies recorded at high pressures. The dynamic parameters of the Debye and structural relaxations are extracted. The calculation of the Kirkwood factor of the Debye relaxation indicates chain-like H-bond molecular configurations. Remarkably, we found that both ratios of the relaxation strength and relaxation time between the Debye and structural dynamics, Δε D/Δε α and τ D/τ α , decreases upon compression, indicating a positive correlation. This is different from the results reported in primary 2-ethyl-1-hexanol and secondary 4-methyl-3-heptanol, where the two ratios are inversely correlated. The discussion and interpretation of these different results are provided.

Abstract
Poly(hexylene 2,5 furan-dicarboxylate) (PHF) is a relatively new biobased polyester prepared from renewable resources, which is targeted for use in food packaging applications, owing to its great mechanical and gas barrier performance. Since both properties are strongly connected to crystallinity, the latter is enhanced here by the in situ introduction in PHF of graphene nanoplatelets and fumed silica nanoparticles, as well as mixtures of both, at low amounts. For this investigation, we employed Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dielectric spectroscopy (BDS). The fillers were found to improve crystallization in both the rate (increasing Tc) and fraction (CF), which was rationalized via the concept of fillers acting as crystallization agents. This action was found stronger in the case of graphene as compared to silica. BDS allowed the detection of local and segmental dynamics, in particular in PHF for the first time. The glass transition dynamics in both BDS (α relaxation) and DSC (Tg) are mainly dominated by the relatively high CF, whereas in the PHF filled uniquely with silica strong spatial confinement effects due to crystals were revealed. Finally, all samples demonstrated the segmental-like dynamics above Tg, which screens the global chain dynamics (normal mode).

Abstract
Segmental dynamics is considered as a major factor governing ionic conductivity of polymerized ionic liquids (PILs), envisioned as potential electrolytes in fuel cells and batteries. Our dielectric studies performed in T-P thermodynamic space on ionene, composed of the positively charged polymer backbone and freely moving anions, indicate that other relaxation modes, completely ignored so far, can affect the charge transport in PILs as well. We found that fast mobility manifested by a secondary β process promotes segmental dynamics and thereby increases ionic conductivity making the studied material a first coupled PIL of superionic properties. The molecular mechanism underlying such a β process has been identified as Johari-Goldstein relaxation giving experimental proof that fast secondary relaxations of intermolecular origin exist also in PILs and thereby reveal a universal character.

Abstract
The hydrogen-bonded monohydroxyl alcohols form a large class of glass formers studied more than one hundred years, and still the structure and dynamics have continued to be a research problem. Recent advance suggests a hydrogen-bonded transient supramolecular structure, which is the origin of the Debye relaxation dominating the dielectric loss spectra of many monohydroxyl alcohols. Obscured by the slower Debye relaxation, the structural α-relaxation is either not resolved or showing up as a shoulder and the supposedly universal Johari-Goldstein (JG) β-relaxation is not always observed. Thus, properties of the α-relaxation and the JG β-relaxation as well as the strong connection between the two relaxations generally observed in other classes of glass formers are not commonly known in the monohydroxyl alcohols. Notwithstanding, extremely broadband dielectric relaxation and high-precision light scattering experiments published recently have resolved the α-relaxation and a secondary relaxation in two archetypal monohydroxyl alcohols, 1-propanol and 5-methyl-2-hexanol (5M2H) by Gabriel et al. We analyzed their experimental data and applied the Coupling Model to show that the secondary relaxations in 1-propanol and 5M2H are JG β-relaxations with strong connection to the α-relaxation. The result is novel because it is not known before whether the secondary relaxations of these two monohydroxyl alcohols are JG β-relaxation involving the entire molecule or are intramolecular relaxations. On the basis of this conclusion, we predict that the secondary relaxation is pressure-dependent and the ratio τβ( T, P)/τα( T, P) is invariant to variations of P and T, whereas τα( T, P) is maintained constant and provided that the frequency dispersion of the α-relaxation is also constant. The prediction is compared with the dielectric data of 5M2H at elevated pressures. On the basis of the identification of monohydroxyl alcohols as short-chain polymeric liquids by others, an explanation of the stronger T and P dependences of τα( T, P) than the Debye relaxation time τD( T, P) is given.
