TECHNOLOGY MEASURING PRACTICE Sorption Analysis – Experimental Procedures Sorption Analysis – Isotherm and Isohume Plots Sorption analysis quantifies the interaction of a sample material with humidity. For sorption analysis, the weight of the sample material is measured under controlled temperature (T) and The weight of the sample material is recorded while T and RH are controlled. In the example below, a step change of RH or T initiates a weight change of the sample material. The relative humidity (RH) conditions. One of these properties - T or RH - is held constant while the other is changed...

APPLICATIONS PHARMACEUTICALS Assessing Amorphous - Crystalline Phase Changes Water or moisture is commonly found in pharmaceutical products. Water uptake by a drug substance is an inherent property. Raw materials material usually absorbs more water if it is in an amorphous state compared to the or pharmaceutical products are exposed to water vapor during processing and storage. The efficacy and tolerability of drugs can be crystalline structure. Water sorption can lower the glass transition temperature significantly altered significantly by the effect of moisture on the active pharmaceutical...

APPLICATIONS POLYMERS Assessing Water Sorption of Fuel-Cell Membranes Improvements in electrochemical conversion of water have been achieved through the development of new proton exchange membrane materials (PEM). Conversion of hydrogen Weight Change (%) and oxygen into water in fuel cells relies on a PEM. The same is true for the conversion of water to hydrogen and oxygen in electrolysers. In both, the PEMs form the heart of the Polymeric materials are applied widely in manufacturing of consumer products and as electrochemical cells and understanding the mechanisms of their degradation allows...
