1Which of these is not an interfacial phenomena?
- ASurafce and interfacial tension
- BAdsorption
- CWetting/Contact angle and Spreading
- DAbsorption
2Forces at play:
1. Cohesive forces
• Forces between [blank_start]like[blank_end] molecules
• Intermolecular forces e.g. [blank_start]H-bonds, van Der Waals forces[blank_end]
- In the bulk – net cohesive force = [blank_start]ZERO[blank_end], molecules being pulled [blank_start]equally[blank_end] in all directions. Surface molecules are [blank_start]unequally attracted[blank_end] to other molecules .
2. Adhesive forces
• Forces between [blank_start]unlike[blank_end] molecules
• [blank_start]Mechanical, electrostatic[blank_end] forces- Alike
- Bunlike
- CH-bonds, van Der Waals forces
- DMechanical, electrostatic
- EZERO
- Fequally
- Gunequally attracted
3- Surface tension (γ): to [blank_start]minimise[blank_end] surface area. At the surface there is inwards [blank_start]force[blank_end] directed towards the [blank_start]bulk[blank_end].
- Interfacial tension (γLL) : The force per unit length existing at the [blank_start]interface[blank_end] between 2 [blank_start]immiscible[blank_end] liquid phases- Aminimise
- Bmaximise
- Cforce
- Dvibration
- Ebulk
- Finterface
- Ginterface
- Hsurface
- Iimmiscible
- Jmiscible
4- Contact angle: the angle formed between a liquid droplet and the surface
over which it spreads. [blank_start]Low values of < 90 degrees[blank_end] indicate that the liquid spreads or wets the solid surface well.
- Wettability: [blank_start]quantitative[blank_end] measure of the wetting of a [blank_start]solid[blank_end] by a [blank_start]liquid[blank_end].
- Wetting agent: A compound that [blank_start]lowers[blank_end] the contact angle between the particle surface and the liquid, eg Surfactants, Alcohol, Glycerin- ALow values of < 90 degrees
- BHigh values of > 90 degrees
- Cquantitative
- Dsolid
- Eliquid
- Flowers
- Graises
5Types of adsorption:
1. Physical
Adsorbate is bound via [blank_start]weak secondary[blank_end] forces. Removal of adsorbate
from the adsorbent – process known as
[blank_start]desorption[blank_end] (increase [blank_start]temperature[blank_end] and decrease [blank_start]pressure[blank_end])
2. Chemical (Chemisorption)
Adsorbate is bound via [blank_start]primary[blank_end] forces. Specific binding, may require an [blank_start]activation energy[blank_end]∴ slow and [blank_start]not readily reversible[blank_end]. Only a [blank_start]monolayer[blank_end] is
possible.- Aweak secondary
- Bprimary
- Cdesorption
- Dtemperature
- Epressure
- Factivation energy
- Gnot readily reversible
- Hmonolayer
6Unwanted effects of adsorption:
• Adsorption of drugs by [blank_start]adsorbents[blank_end] taken [blank_start]simultaneously[blank_end] by a patient e.g. adsorption of drugs (NSAIDs, Glipizide) onto [blank_start]coadministered antacids[blank_end] Mg(OH)2 or Al(OH)3
• Adsorption of drugs onto the [blank_start]walls of a container[blank_end] e.g. loss of insulin in an intravenous line
• Adsorption of drugs onto [blank_start]excipients[blank_end] e.g. phenytoin adsorption by dicalcium phosphate tablet filler- Asimultaneously
- Bcoadministered antacids
- Cwalls of a container
- Dadsorbents
- Eexcipients
7Choose the incorrect statement about surfactants
- AAccumulate at an interface and result in decreased surface
tension - BLarge molecules with a lipophilic group ‘tail’ and a hydrophilic group ‘head group’
- CMany drugs are surface active (amphipathic nature)
- DWetting, emulsifying, and solubilising agents
- EHeadgroup can be cationic, anionic, or zwitterionic
- FSorbitan esters are nonionic surfactants generally
immiscible in water and are W/O emulsifiers - GPolysorbates are nonionic surfactants miscible in
water are are O/W) emulsifiers - HTween 80 is a sorbitan ester
- IO/W emulsifying agents have HLBs from 3-8, while W/O emulsifying agents have HLBs 8 - 16
- AAccumulate at an interface and result in decreased surface
