Hansen theory applied to the identification of nonhazardous solvents for hybrid perovskite thin-films processing
2018
Abstract Metal-halide perovskites have become the most studied material for efficient next-generation solar cells, in part because of the possibility of depositing high quality semiconducting perovskites by simple solution-based methods. However, the majority of solvent systems implemented in literature for deposition of lead halide perovskites are hazardous to handle. Investigation of alternatives perovskite processing methods are hence key to safely upscale the perovskite photovoltaic manufacturing. In this manuscript we use the Hansen theory to find suitable nonhazardous solvents to solubilize two lead salts, PbBr2 and PbI2, used to fabricate the corresponding methylammonium (MA) lead ha…
A New Simple Static Method for the Determination of Solubilities of Condensed Compounds in Supercritical Fluids
2002
Abstract A simple static method based on gravimetric measurements has been adopted to measure the solubility of benzenecarboxylic acid, 2-hydroxy-benzenecarboxylic acid, 4-hydroxy-benzenecarboxylic acid and 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone along several isotherms in the temperature range 318–357 K and the pressure interval 7–23 MPa. Solubility data have been correlated with the Zieger–Eckert approach, using the Fedor atomic and group contribution method to estimate the solubility parameter and the molar volume of the solutes. A good agreement was obtained between data reported in the literature and those determined using the proposed method which allows one to measure solubility mole fraction as …
Solubility of Polymers
2011
Detailed knowledge concerning the phase state (homogeneous or coexistence of two or more condensed phases) of polymer containing mixtures is indispensible in virtually any area related to the production or application of macromolecules. In addition to this qualitative information it is for many purposes highly desirable to dispose of quantitative data regarding solvent quality or, more generally, with respect to the thermodynamic interaction between the components of the mixtures. This contribution starts with a brief presentation of the thermodynamic criteria deciding on the phase state and presents the experimental methods used in this area. The next section gives an overview on typical b…
Predictability of drug encapsulation and release from propylene carbonate/PLGA microparticles.
2020
Abstract Key parameters for microparticle-based parenteral depot formulation development are entrapment efficiency and sustained drug release, which both depend on the intermolecular affinity of the components. Here, partial solubility parameters were evaluated as descriptors for 21 drug substances and 3 polymers in propylene carbonate (PC). Out of these 21 drug substances, eight BCS class II substances (celecoxib, clotrimazole, erythromycin, ibuprofen, indomethacin, itraconazole, lopinavir and ritonavir) were encapsulated using PLGA (Poly(DL-lactide-co-glycolide)) as polymer matrix and PC as a polar aprotic solvent in order to assign microparticle properties to potential affinity-related i…
Experimental P-T-ro Measurements of Supercritical Mixtures of Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, and Hydrogen and Semiquantitative Estimation of Their …
2007
The P-T-ρ behavior of the CO2-CO-H2 system was studied in the supercritical region under operative conditions close to those adopted to perform hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions in dense CO 2, thus providing new interesting information on this fluid mixture. Experiments were performed in a fixed volume reactor in the temperature range from 298 K to 343 K changing the density and the composition of the fluid phase. The one-component (Hildebrand) solubility parameter of the mixture was estimated from experimentally measured P vs T profiles, and its dependence on the density and composition of the system was analyzed to study the antisolvent effect of the permanent gases. We have fo…
Experimenteller nachweis des molekulardispersen charakters der mischung von zwei polymeren und bestimmung des chemischen potentials in diesen mischun…
1976
Mit Hilfe der Neutronenkleinwinkelstreuung wird der molekulardisperse Charakter einer glasklaren Mischung von zwei Polymeren bei Abwesenheit eines niedermolekularen Losungsmittels in einem Fall nachgewiesen, im anderen widerlegt. Falls eine molekulardisperse Mischung vorliegt, konnen das chemische Potential und die Knaueldimensionen bestimmt werden. Polymethylmethacrylat und Styrol-Acrylnitril-Copolymere bilden fur gewisse Zusammensetzungen des Copolymeren molekulardisperse Mischungen. Sie sind exotherm, besitzen eine negative Exzesentropie und die Molekulknauel sind gegenuber den ungestorten Knaueldimensionen expandiert. Die Theorie der Loslichkeitsparameter von Hildebrand und Scott ermogl…
Liquid phase exfoliation of carbonate-intercalated layered double hydroxides.
2019
Direct exfoliation of a carbonate layered double hydroxide (LDH) has been achieved by using a novel horn-probe sonic tip, avoiding the development of time-consuming anion-exchange reactions. The most suitable solvents were chosen based on the Hildebrand solubility parameters and the thickness of the exfoliated nanosheets confirmed unambiguously the successful delamination.
Advancements in Sustainable PVDF Copolymer Membrane Preparation Using Rhodiasolv® PolarClean As an Alternative Eco-Friendly Solvent
2021
In this work, Rhodiasolv® PolarClean was employed as a more sustainable solvent for the preparation of poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) flat sheet membranes via phase inversion technique by coupling vapour induced phase separation (VIPS) and non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) processes. Preliminary calculations based on Hansen solubility parameters well predicted the solubilization of the polymer in the selected solvent. The effect of exposure time on humidity and the influence of polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and sulfonated polyether sulfone (S-PES) on membrane properties and performance, were evaluated. Three different coagulation …
Pressure dependence of the demixing of polymer solutions determined by viscometry
1981
From the break-down in the viscosity of a polymer solution, associated with the entrance into the two phase region, the pressure dependence of the demixing temperatures of solutions of polystyrene (M = 600.000) in cyclohexane, cyclopentane, diethylmalonate and 1-phenyldecane was measured up to 1000 bar. The application of pressure increases the solubility of polystyrene in cyclopentane and diethylmalonate, but decreases that in 1-phenyldecane; in the case of cyclohexane, a pressure of optimum miscibility is observed at ca. 120 bar.
Structure-properties relationships of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) filled PS nanocomposites
2012
The polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) additivated polystyrene (PS) based nanocomposites were pre- pared by melt processing and the structure-properties relationships of the POSS-PS systems were compared to those of the neat PS. In order to investigate the effect of these structural parameters on the final properties of the polymer nanocompos- ites, five different kinds of POSS samples were used, in particular, POSS with different inorganic cage and with different organic pendent groups. The rheological investigation suggests clearly that the POSS acts as a plasticizer and that the processability of the PS was positively modified. The affinity between the POSS samples and the PS ma…
