Compression effects on alpha and beta relaxation process of amorphous drugs are theoretically investigated by developing the elastically collective nonlinear Langevin equation theory. We describe the structural relaxation as a coupling between local and nonlocal activated process. Meanwhile, the secondary beta process is mainly governed by the nearest-neighbor interactions of a molecule. This assumption implies the beta relaxation acts as a precursor of the alpha relaxation. When external pressure is applied, a small displacement of a molecule is additionally exerted by a pressure-induced mechanical work in the dynamic free energy, which quantifies interactions between a molecule with... |
