Detecting the unknown!
Electron Diffraction culminates the elucidation of the crystal structure
The Center of Continuous Manufacturing and Advanced Crystallization (CMAC), in collaboration with the University of Strathclyde and others, uses a non-destructive technique: X-ray Diffraction Computed Tomography (XRD-CT) to study solid-state chemical reactions in tablets. A full understanding of the reactions happening is achieved.
Complementing the study with Electron Diffraction, the structure of the product of the solid-state reaction was fully elucidated.
The structure obtained, gives proof and confirms the proposed chemical reaction happening in the tablet.
