DU Shichao, LI Kangli, ZHANG Yu, et al. Progressively frozen condensation crystallization of oxiracetam[J]. CIESC Journal, 2015, (9): 3563-3569.DOI: 10.11949/j.issn.0438-1157.20150903.
It is found that direct freeze-drying method is not applicable to oxiracetam because of long time and poor product quality. In this paper
MS software is used to calculate the molecular interactions between additive (sorbitol) and different crystal surfaces of oxiracetam. These values are very small and could be neglected. Experiments also show that the crystal form and morphology are independent of sorbitol in freeze-drying process. Analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry and hot-stage microscopy
glassy sate of oxiracetam prescription is identified during original prefreezing process
against sublimation of water molecules. Therefore
we propose a gradual congelation crystallization technology to change the crystal state of sorbitol
congeal every component and separate them in microcrystalline. According to results of larger scale experiments
this new technique greatly shortens the time required and improves the product quality.
