This work describes the aqueous-solution technique preparation and characterization of the complex between human-like collagen and copper (II). Pure human-like collagen and the copper complex were characterized by thermo gravimetric (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. The TG curves and DSC data reveal the significant thermal differences between pure protein and the copper complex, demonstrating the formation of a new chemical compound, which is different from the free HLC and with more stable thermodynamic properties.

The (Ba0.88Ca0.12)( Zr0.12Ti0.88)O3 powders and piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by sol-gel process. The reaction process was analyzed with the help of thermo gravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry. X-ray diffraction characterized results showed that the structure of the (Ba0.88Ca0.12)( Zr0.12Ti0.88)O3 powders was perovskite structure and the particle size was approximately 37nm. Piezoelectric measurements revealed that Curie temperature and the maximum piezoelectric coefficient d33 is 95°C and 215pm/V, respectively.

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 aim of this study was to describe the thermal properties of selected cultivars of flaxseed oil by the use of the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. The crystallization and melting profiles were analyzed depending on different scanning rates (1, 2, 5 °C/min) as well as oxidative induction time (OIT) isothermally at 120 °C and 140 °C, and oxidation onset temperatures (Ton) at 2 and 5 °C/min were measured. The crystallization was manifested as a single peak, differing for a cooling rate of 1 and 2 °C/min. The melting curves were more complex with differences among the cultivars for a heating rate of 1 and 2 °C/min, while for 5 °C/min, the profiles did not differ, which could be utilized in analytics for profiling in order to assess the authenticity of the flaxseed oil. Moreover, it was observed that flaxseed oil was highly susceptible to thermal oxidation, and its stability decreased with increasing temperature and decreasing heating rate. Significant negative linear correlations were found between unsaturated fatty acid content (C18:2, C18:3 n-3) and DSC parameters (OIT, Ton). Principal component analysis (PCA) also established a strong correlation between total oxidation value (TOTOX), peroxide value (PV) and all DSC parameters of thermo-oxidative stability.

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.
