Author(s): Vishnu Kant
Abstract: Solidification behaviour of Nicotinamide(NA)–p-Dimethylaminobenzaldehyde(MAB) binary drug system have been investigated and reported in this paper. The solid-liquid equilibrium (SLE) data determined by Thaw-melt method with their corresponding compositions construct the solid-liquid phase diagram which suggests simple eutectic of 0.857 mole fraction of MAB at 70 °C is followed by the binary system. The thermodynamic properties such as entropy of fusion, mixing and excess thermodynamic functions of all alloys (A1- A11) have been studied using their enthalpy of fusion values. Gibbs-Duhem equation resolves the quantitative identity of mixing chemical potential, activity and activity coefficient of a component in the binary mix. Interface morphology of the alloys follows the Jackson’s surface roughness (a) theory and predicts the faceted growth (a > 2) proceeds in all the alloys. The microstructure of pure components of taken binary system having high entropy of fusion as well as the binary organic eutectic of NA-MAB drug system has also been discussed in the present investigation.
