Effect of primidone concentration on glass transition temperature and dissolution of solid dispersion systems containing primidone and citric acid.
The glass transition temperatures of glasses containing various concentrations of primidone in citric acid were measured and found to increase as the primidone concentration increased. Dissolution studies of these systems and particle-size measurements of primidone precipitated during dissolution of devitrified glasses suggest that the increase in the dissolution rate of the devitrified systems is due to both the small size of the precipitated crystals and the excellent wettability of these systems.
