A study conducted by researchers at Kyung Hee University in Yongin, South Korea, has explored the influence of fluid flow on the formation of cocrystals of caffeine and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid. The study found that different flow patterns resulted in different stoichiometric ratios of the cocrystals, with the Batchelor vortex flow producing stable (1:3) cocrystals. The research highlights the importance of fluid flow patterns in controlling the stoichiometry of cocrystals, which has implications for pharmaceutical development and material science applications. The study was supported by the National Research Foundation of Korea and has been peer-reviewed. [Extracted from the article] |
