Quantifying the loading capacity of a carrier-based DPI formulation and its dependence on the blending process
Andrea Benassi, Ilaria Perazzi, Roberto Bosi +2
Non-segregating ordered powder mixtures constituted by a coarse carrier fraction and finer components are at the basis of dry powders for inhalation pharmaceuticas. The estimation…
Mechanical characterization of pharmaceutical powders and correlation with their behavior during grinding
Laura Baraldi, Davide De Angelis, Roberto Bosi +4
Controlling the size of powder particles is pivotal in the design of many pharmaceutical forms and the related manufacturing processes and plants. One of the most common techniques…
Optical properties of emeraldine salt polymers from ab initio calculations: comparison with recent experimental data
Renato Colle, Pietro Parruccini, Andrea Benassi +1
We present absorption coefficient α(ω), transverse dielectric function ε(ω), optical conductivity σ(ω), and reflectance R(ω) calculated for an emeraldine salt conducting polymer in…
Graphene nanoribbons on gold: Understanding superlubricity and edge effects
Lorenzo Gigli, Nicola Manini, Andrea Benassi +3
We address the atomistic nature of the longitudinal static friction against sliding of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) deposited on gold, a system whose structural and mechanical prope…
Friction and Adhesion mediated by supramolecular host-guest complexes
Roberto Guerra, Andrea Benassi, Andrea Vanossi +2
The adhesive and frictional response of an AFM tip connected to a substrate through supramolecular host-guest complexes is investigated by dynamic Monte Carlo simulations. The vari…
Superlubricity of Graphene Nanoribbons on Gold Surfaces
Shigeki Kawai, Andrea Benassi, Enrico Gnecco +9
The state of vanishing friction known as superlubricity has important applications for energy saving and increasing the lifetime of devices. Superlubricity detected with atomic for…
