Thermodynamics for Drug Product Design: A Guide for Pharmaceutical Scientists
William Craig Stagner
Inbunden
Comprehensive reference reviewing how thermodynamic principles underpin the design of drug products and their applications
Written in a an easy-to-read and understand style, Drug Product Design Thermodynamics offers an abundance of real-life drug product design examples, applications, personal anecdotes, and solved problems that contextualize thermodynamic principles for the drug product design scientist. Advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students will learn to apply thermodynamic principles to create robust drug products and to predict, prevent, analyze, and evaluate the root cause of product failures. Professionals engaged in drug product design will find this book to be a rich and easy to use reference guide.
The first two chapters address some key basics of reporting, math, and thermodynamic properties using simple and accessible language. These chapters also help readers understand fundamental underlying definitions and physical relationships required to use thermodynamic laws in the design of drug products. In later chapters, the book focuses on six industrial pharmacy relevant thermodynamic topics: underlying thermodynamic physical property relationships and definitions, the laws of thermodynamics, Gibbs energy, equilibria, drug solubility equilibria, and surface and interfacial thermodynamics.
Drug Product Design Thermodynamics features chapters including:
- Data Reporting and Analysis
- Underlying Thermodynamic Physical Property Relationships and Definitions
- The Laws of Thermodynamics
- Gibbs Free Energy
- Equilibria
- Drug Solubility Equilibrium
- Surface Thermodynamics
- Adsorption Phenomena
