Nylon 5T is one of the bio-based nylons, its raw material 1,5-pentanediamine is derived from biomass resources and produced by biological methods. 1,5-pentanediamine-terephthalate (PDA-TPA) is the monomeric salt for nylon 5T polymerization, and its own product quality has a significant impact on the performance of nylon 5T. PDA-TPA was prepared by anti-solvent crystallization in this study. It exists in two solid forms, a monohydrate [form (I)] and an anhydrous phase [form (II)]. The transition temperature of the two phases was around 65°C in the given ethanol–water binary (7:1) mixture. The characterization of monohydrate and anhydrate phases regarding structures and stabilities was carefully carried out using powder X-ray diffraction, single crystal X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, hot-stage microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The relationship between the molecular interactions of monohydrate and anhydrate phases under different packing architectures and their thermal behaviours was analysed and established. In addition, the relationships between the structures and thermal behaviours for the two solid forms were analysed and established. In addition, the effect of solvent on phase conversion, the relationships between the temperature and water activity, as well as the relative stability of monohydrate and anhydrate phases under different thermodynamic conditions, were investigated by solid–solid transformation and solvent-mediated transformation experiments. It was obvious that the transition temperature of monohydrate and anhydrate phases of PDA-TPA was significantly influenced by water activity, and the larger the value of water activity is, the higher is the transition temperature. These studies give insight into the transformation of nylon 5T monomer salt and contribute to the control of target crystal preparation.

The crystal structures of KOs(NH3)3(ClO4)2Cl2 and KCr(NH3)6(ClO4)2Cl2 were determined at 10 K by X-ray diffraction, and for the osmium salt also at 293 K. At 293 K the osmium salt is trigonal, space group R 3m, with the same simple structure as others of this class of double salt. At 10 K, in agreement with previous radius ratio predictions, both crystals are best described as remaining R 3m. All previously studied members, with larger alkali metal cations, are twinned R 3 at low temperatures, with small, symmetry-breaking rotations of the hexaamminemetal(III) and perchlorate ions about the threefold axis. Differential scanning calorimetry on CsRu(NH3)6(ClO4)2Cl2 suggests that the R 3m to R 3 change is very extended in temperature with only a small discontinuity at the transition temperature.

Vanadium dioxide (VO2) has great potential as an intelligent architectural glazing system as it can control the amount of light, heat, and solar energy relative to the temperature in the environment. However, the applicability of VO2 for commercial use is yet to be realized because its phase transition temperature (τc) of ∼68°C is too high for use in buildings. A proven strategy to lower its τc is by elemental doping. Hence, in this study, hydrothermal synthesis of nanostructured VO2 was carried out with the introduction of tungsten (W) as a dopant. Furthermore, the effects of W doping on the structural, thermochromic, and thermophysical properties of VO2 were examined. Using X-ray diffraction (XRD), it was found that the addition of W atoms affected the VO2 lattice since the crystal structure of VO2 was changed from monoclinic to tetragonal rutile. Subsequently, this influenced the thermochromic behavior of the prepared VO2. Based on the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), doping with tungsten resulted in a significant decrease in τc from 66.47°C to as low as 31.64°C. Moreover, W doping affected the thermophysical properties of the samples. Accordingly, an abrupt increase in the thermal conductivities of the doped samples was observed across the transition temperature.

The martensitic transition and the ferro- to paramagnetic transition have been studied in a series of Ga excess Ni-Mn-Ga specimens [Ni2-xMnGa1+x (0.4≤ x≤ 0.9)] by differential scanning calorimetry and magnetization measurements. The martensitic transition exhibits a hysteresis whose width is similar to Ni2MnGa, indicating that the transition is thermoelastic. The latent heat of transformation is comparable with other Ni-Mn-Ga alloys. A substantial increase in the martensitic transition temperature is observed due to Ga doping. Interestingly, the x-ray diffraction pattern of all the compositions studied show a modulated martensitic structure in the martensitic phase.

Coal fly ash from coal power plants is a potential raw material for the production of alumina. An objective aluminothermic reduction method for the preparation of Al-Si master alloy and alumina from coal fly ash was investigated. The kinetic analysis using non-isothermal differential scanning calorimetry indicated that the reduction of Al6Si2O13, Fe2O3, and TiO2 by aluminum in coal fly ash occurs at 1618 K, 1681 K, and 1754 K, respectively. Moreover, the influence of reaction temperature on product composition was studied. The phases and morphologies of the products obtained by the aluminothermic reduction of coal fly ash at 1373-1773 K were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy, respectively. The results from X-ray diffraction show that no oxide reduction has taken place at 1373 K and 1473K, the compositions of the product obtained by aluminothermic reduction of fly ash at 1573K- 1673 K are Al2O3, mullite, Al and Si, while the compositions of the product at 1773 K are Al2O3, Al, and Si. In addition, the chemical compositions of Al-Si alloy obtained at 1773 K are 86.81 wt% Al and 13.19 wt% Si.

The crystalline morphology of a long-term stored metallocene isotactic polypropylene (mPP) has been studied with time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), and compared with that of the freshly crystallized sample. It was found that both α and γ crystal forms occur in the long-term stored mPP, whereas freshly crystallized mPP contains only the α crystal form. Double SAXS peaks were observed for the long-term stored mPP, which can be assigned to the α and γ crystals. Based on the SAXS result, it is inferred that the crystal stacks of the α and γ forms in the long-term stored mPP are arranged according to the block mode.

The glasses (80-x)TeO2·xV2O5·20MO (M=Sn, Bi, Ca, Na and K) had been examined as potential replacements for PbO-based glass frits with low firing temperature. The glasses with TeO2 0-44 mol%, and V2O5 39-82 mol% are not suitable for glass frit since they are easy to crystallize. The glasses with the content of the TeO2 54-74 mol%, and the V2O5 9-29 mol% were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, infrared spectra and fluidity evaluation experiments. The glasses possess appropriate fluidity and do not crystallize in the re-melting process at 723-753 K. The glass transition temperature of the glasses is at 544-578 K. The structure of the glasses is layer upon layer mainly connected by the structure units of [VO4] and [TeO3]. Other modifier ions locate mainly between the layers. The isolated V=O band from the VO5 bipyramids is not occurred in the vitreous structure of the glasses.

Polymorphism exhibits different physicochemical properties, which can impact the bioavailability and bioactivity of solid drugs. This study focused on identifying the polymorphs of ginsenoside compound K (CK) and studying their different behaviors in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD). Four CK polymorphs (form I, II, III, and IV) from organic solvents were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). A feasible LC-MS/MS method was exploited to determine the PK parameters. Form II displayed the most exposure, followed by form I, III, and IV. Notably, all forms showed sex dimorphism, and the bioavailability in the female group was about two-fold higher than in the male group. The PD properties were investigated in carrageenan-induced acute paw inflammation, and form II at 20 mg/kg showed significant inhibition of edema by 42.7%. This study clarified the polymorphic, PK, and PD characters of four crystal forms of CK, and the data suggested that form II had the best efficacy for drug development.
