The distribution of chemical species and the degree of orientation in semicrystalline polymer systems have been studied using fast Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) imaging. A variety of poly(ethylene glycol) systems, including pure polymer, high and low molecular weight blends, and blends with amor

Spectroscopic imaging and a flow-through dissolution test have been combined to improve the possibilities of investigating the release of a poorly soluble drug (diclofenac) from pharmaceutical tablets. The presented methods aim to overcome the limitations that impede the conventional dissolution tes
The diffusion of liquid crystal 4-n-pentyl-4ะ-cyanobiphenyl (5CB) into a poly(butyl methacrylate) (PBMA) matrix has been studied using fast FTIR imaging. The concentration profiles were obtained as a function of time at several temperatures above and below the nematic to isotropic transition tempera
Polymer dissolution in solvents is an important area of interest in polymer science and engineering because of its many applications in industry such as microlithography, membrane science, plastics recycling, and drug delivery. Unlike nonpolymeric materials, polymers do not dissolve instantaneously,
