Polyvinylamine (PVAm) was synthesized by Hofmann degradation of polyacrylamide (PAM). The thermal properties of the Polyvinylamine hydrochloride (PVAm•HCl) were studied by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The degradation rate (a) decreased with increasing weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of PAM and decreasing amount of NaOH, and a were the better values when the concentration of PAM was 5% and the amount of NaClO was 10 mL. DSC curves showed that the glass transition temperature (Tg) of PVAm•HCl increased with increasing Mw of PAM, concentration of NaClO and decreasing concentration of NaOH. Tg of PVAm•HCl appeared the minimum value when the concentration of PAM was 5.0%.

Dynamic networks with precise spacers between boronic ester bonds were investigated over a broad temperature window. Arrhenius behavior breaks down and an increase in relaxation time is observed when approach the glass transition temperature.

In this study, the putative correlation between the molecular mobility of a polymer and the ball milling drug amorphization kinetics (i.e., time to reach full drug amorphization, ta) was studied using different grades of dextran (Dex) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and the two model drugs indomethacin (IND) and chloramphenicol (CAP). In general, IND had lower ta values than CAP, indicating that IND amorphized faster than CAP in the presence of the polymers. In addition, an increase in polymer molecular weight (Mw) also led to an increase in ta for all systems investigated up to a critical Mw for each polymer, which was in line with an increase of the glass transition temperature (Tg) up to the critical Mw of each polymer. Hence, the increase in ta seemed to correlate well with the Tg/Mw of the polymers, which indicates that the polymers’ molecular mobility had an influence on the drug amorphization kinetics during ball milling.
