Abstract
The impact of low water concentration of strongly hydrogen-bonded water molecules on the dynamical properties of amorphous terfenadine (TFD) is investigated through complementary molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) experiments. In this article, we especially highlight the important role played by some residual water molecules in the concentration of 1-2% (w/w) trapped in the TFD glassy matrix, which are particularly difficult to remove experimentally without a specific heating/drying process. From MD computations and analyses of the hydrogen bonding (HB) interactions, different categories of water molecules are revealed and particularly the presence of strongly HB water molecules. These latter localize themselves in small pockets in empty spaces existing in between the TFD molecules due to the poor packing of the glassy state and preferentially interact with the polar groups close to the flexible central part of the TFD molecules. We present a simple model which rationalizes at the molecular scale the effect of these strongly HB water molecules on dynamics and how they give rise to a supplementary relaxation process (namely process S) which is detected for the first time in the glassy state of TFD annealed at room temperature while this process is completely absent in a non-annealed glass. It also explains how this supplementary relaxation is coupled with the intramolecular motion (namely process γ) of the very flexible central part of the TFD molecule. The present findings help to understand more generally the microscopic origin of the secondary relaxations often detected by DRS in the glassy states of molecular compounds for which the exact nature is still debated.

Abstract
In this paper, the molecular dynamics and thermal properties of representative acetylated linear and cyclic oligosaccharides: acTRE, acRAF, acSTA, ac-α-CD, ac-β-CD, ac-γ-CD, have been investigated by using broadband dielectric spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. We found that there are marked differences in the dynamics of the structural and secondary relaxation processes in both groups of materials. Just to mention a variation in the distribution of the structural relaxation times as well as different evolutions of the glass transition temperature (Tg) and fragility (m) versus molecular weight (Mw), which seem to be affected by the shape of the molecule, strain in the carbohydrate ring and mobility of side acetyl moieties.

Abstract
Abstract
Food powders can exist in amorphous, crystalline or mixed structure depending on the order of molecular arrangement in the powder particle matrices. In food production, the structure of powders has a greatly effect on their stability, functionality, and applicability. The undesirable structure of powders can be accidentally formed during production. Therefore, characterization of powder structure as well as quantification of amorphous–crystalline proportions presenting in the powders are essential to control the quality of products during storage and further processing. For these purposes, many analytical techniques with large differences in the degree of selectivity and sensitivity have been developed. In this review, differences in the structure of food powders are described with a focus being placed on applications of amorphous powders. Essentially, applicability of common analytical techniques including X-ray, microscopic, vapor adsorption, thermal, and spectroscopic approaches for quantitative and qualitative structural characterization of food powders is also discussed.

Abstract
An innovative method to encapsulate tea tree oil (TTO) by direct complexation with solid amorphous beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was investigated. A β-CD to TTO ratio of 90.5:9.5 (104.9mg TTO/g β-CD) was used in all complexation methods. The encapsulation was performed by direct mixing, and direct mixing was followed by the addition of water (13-17% moisture content, MC) or absolute ethanol (1:1, 1:2, 1:3 and 1:4 TTO:ethanol). The direct mixing method complexed the lowest amount of TTO (60.77mg TTO/g β-CD). Powder recrystallized using 17% MC included 99.63mg of TTO/g β-CD. The addition of ethanol at 1:2 and 1:3 TTO:ethanol ratios resulted in the inclusion of 94.3 and 98.45mg of TTO/g β-CD respectively, which was similar to that of TTO encapsulated in the conventional paste method (95.56mg TTO/g β-CD), suggesting an effective solid encapsulation method. The XRD and DSC results indicated that the amorphous TTO-β-CD complex was crystallized by the addition of water and ethanol.

Abstract
The molecular dynamics of condensed polymers are directly linked to practically important mechanical properties, such as glass transition behavior and impact strength. We present a unique viscoelastic glass-forming polyrotaxane that is comprised of a main chain polymer and threaded cyclodextrins. The abnormally broad glass transition phase is attributed to the segment motion, which is unprecedentedly insusceptible to cooperative motion with neighboring chains until vitrification is completed. Even in the glass state, in which the cyclic components, occupying >80 wt % of the material, are vitrified, the main chain polymer retains high mobility within the glassy porous framework. The anomalous mobility of the polymer chains causes strong subrelaxation that changed the elastic modulus about 3-fold. These results demonstrate that the unique dynamics and mechanics are attributable to the loose correlation between different components, suggesting the possible creation of unprecedented mechanical properties based on the molecular design of mechanically interlocked polymers.
