“…As shown in Table 1, the experimental T g s of PRL and LID with ethanol and ethylene glycol were higher than the theoretical T g s of the solvated drugs. These findings contradict the assumptions that ethanol and ethylene glycol acted purely as plasticizers for PRL and LID, 37 but rather indicate a certain anti-plasticizing potential. However, this anti-plasticizing potential did not result in an increase of the T g s of PRL and LID, but rather in a decrease that is less than theoretically predicted.…”
This study showed that the combination of weak hydrogen bonding and strong electrostatic contributions in hydrated PRL and LID could play an important role in inducing the anti-plasticizing effect of water on those drugs.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
