ABSTRACTIn this work we report about the design and construction of a simple and cheap calorimeter for phase transitions monitoring using Peltier elements and based in the well known inverse (front) photopyroelectric method for thermophysical characterization of materials. We describe its application for the detection of phase transitions in chocolate samples, as an alternative, for example, to the most widely used and more expensive Differential Scanning Calorimetry technique. The manufacture of chocolate requires an understanding of the chemistry and the physical properties of the product. Thus the involved problems during the confection process are those of the so-called materials science. Among them, those related with tempering are of particular importance. Because the fats in cocoa butter experience the so-called polymorphous crystallization, the primary purpose of tempering is to assure that only the best form is present in the final product. One way to characterize this is by measurement of the temperature dependence of the thermal properties of the chocolate and the monitoring of the temperature at which phase transitions take place. We show that the photopyroelectric method, aided with Peltier cells temperature control, can be a useful choice for this purpose.

Aim: The work’s aim was the preparation and characterization of a hydrogel based on gelatin and glycerine, useful for site-specific release of benzydamine, an anti-inflammatory drug, able to attenuate the inflammatory process typical of the vaginal infection. Objective: The obtained hydrogel has been characterized by Electronic Scanning Microscopy (SEM) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). In addition, due to the precursor properties, the hydrogel exhibits a relevant mucoadhesive activity. Methods: The swelling degree was evaluated at two different pHs and at defined time intervals. In particular, phosphate buffers were used at pH 6.6, in order to mimic the typical conditions of infectious diseases at the vaginal level, particularly for HIV-seropositive pregnant women, and pH 4.6, to simulate the physiological environment. Results: The obtained results revealed that the hydrogel swells up well at both pHs. Conclusion: Release studies conducted at both pathological and physiological pHs have shown that benzydamine is released at the level of the vaginal mucosa in a slow and gradual manner. These data support the hypothesis of the hydrogel use for the site-specific release of benzydamine in the vaginal mucosa.

The possibilities of applications of vibrational spectroscopy techniques (Raman spectroscopy) in the analysis and characterization of polymers are more and more used and accurate. In this paper, our purpose is to characterize Low Density Poly(Ethylene) (LDPE) grades by Raman spectroscopy and in particular with CH2 Raman vibration modes. With temperature measurements, we determine different amorphous and crystalline Raman assignments. From these results and on the basis of the evolution of CH2 bending Raman vibration modes, we develop a phenomenological model in correlation with Differential Scanning Calorimetry and in particular with crystalline lamella thickness determination.

Polymers have various interesting properties, which depend largely on their inner structure. One way to influence the macroscopic behaviour is the deformation of the polymer chains, which effects the change in microstructure. For analyzing the microstructure of non-deformed and deformed polymer materials, Raman spectroscopy as well as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used. In the present study we compare the results for crystallinity measurements of deformed polymers using both methods in order to characterize the differences in micro-structure due to deformation. The study is ongoing, and we present the results of the first tests.
