Novel Solvents as Drug Delivery Vehicles

Solvents develop a pivotal role in the pharmaceutical industry considering that they may account up to 90% of drug delivery operations. The development of new solvents for pharmaceutical applications, especially for active pharmaceutical ingredients (API),… 

Deep Eutectic Solvent with Methanol Mixtures

The binary mixtures formed by choline chloride + lactic acid deep eutectic solvent and methanol were studied in the full composition range as a function of temperature. Thermophysical properties were measured and combined with the derived excess… 

Novel Solvents as Drug Delivery Vehicles

The solvation of lidocaine in two selected deep eutectic solvents is studied using density functional theory and molecular dynamics methods. The intermolecular forces between lidocaine and the involved molecules are analysed in terms of van… 

Low Viscous Ionic Liquids at the Graphene Interface

The interaction of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide ionic liquid with graphene was studied using computational chemistry methods with quantum chemistry and classical dynamics approaches. The adsorption of this ionic liquid at the graphene surface, the structure at… 

Oil desulfuration with deep eutectic solvents

A theoretical study using quantum chemistry and molecular dynamics methods is reported on the properties of deep eutectic solvent prepared by tetrabutylammonium bromide and formic acid regarding to oil desulfurization. The objective of the work… 

Natural eutectic solvents on gas capture

Natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) produced herein this work by mixing betaine and alanine with lactic acid and malic acid with 1:1 M mixing ratios. Thermophysical properties including water content, thermal stability, density and gas… 

Focus: Ionic liquids for toxic gaseous mitigation

Simultaneous CO2 and SO2 capture by using ionic liquids: a theoretical approach Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods are used to analyze the mechanism of interaction between acid gases and ionic liquids based on 1-ethyl-3-methylimdazolium cation…
