La synthèse de macroalcoxyamines hydrosolubles à partir d’acide méthacrylique et d’un faible pourcentage de styrène sulfonate de sodium a été étudiée en solution aqueuse. Ces macroalcoxyamines ont été utilisées comme macroamorceurs pour la polymérisation en émulsion sanstensioactif du méthacrylate de méthyle et du méthacrylate de n-butyle avec un faible pourcentage destyrène. Les copolymères diblocs amphiphiles produits s’auto-assemblent in situ et conduisent, en fonction de leur taux d’hydrophilie, à l’obtention de nano-objets présentant des morphologies variées(sphères, fibres, vésicules). La plus intéressante est la morphologie fibrillaire car les suspensions correspondantes présentent des propriétés rhéofluidifiantes à basse concentration et possèdent un comportement viscoélastique à haute concentration. La synthèse de ces latex a été étudiée et développée dans des conditions monotopes les plus proches possibles d’une production industrielle. / Water-soluble, SG1-based macroalkoxyamines composed of methacrylic acid with a low percentage of sodium 4-styrene sulfonate were synthesized in aqueous solution. These macroalkoxyamines were used as macroinitiators in the surfactant-free emulsion polymerization ofmethyl methacrylate or n-butyl methacrylate with a low percentage of styrene. The polymerization induced self-assembly of the so-formed amphiphilic block copolymers leads to nanoobjects with various morphologies (spheres, fibers, vesicles), depending on their hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance. The most interesting morphology is the nanofiber type of organization as the suspensions presentshear-thinning properties at low concentration and viscoelastic behavior at high concentration. The synthesis of these latexes was investigated and developed in one-pot conditions in order to allow further production at the industrial scale.

Diploma thesis deals with the experimental study of transdermal transport of individual hydroxyacids and their combination with water-soluble vitamins. During this work the literature review was prepared, which was focused on the use of hydroxyacids in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. At the same time the current state of use of water-soluble vitamins for topical applications was studied. Series of experiments was performed using Franz diffusion cells to simulate transdermal transport in vitro across cutaneous, synthetic and artificial Strat M ® membranes. The methodology of sample preparation and analysis of their transport properties was invented and optimized. The optimized methodology was subsequently used in a series of diffusion experiments in which the penetrated amount of hydroxyacids was analyzed by ion chromatography. The concentration of water-soluble vitamins was determined by HPLC. All examined active substances demonstrate positive penetration properties. The best results were obtained with combination of glycolic acid with pyridoxine.

Foundry technology is an industrial sector, where progress is still the important aspect for reducing the environmental impact and increasing competitiveness. Master's thesis is focused on the possibilities of influencing residual strength of the core moulding mixtures with the biogenic binders, which forms a new group of binder systems.

En raison de leur complexité croissante, la solubilité des nouvelles entités chimiques en milieu aqueux est de plus en plus faible. Ainsi, le développement de beaucoup de principes actifs échoue à cause d’une hydrosolubilité insuffisante. De nombreuses technologies existent pour améliorer la solubilité et/ou solubilisation de tels composés. Cette thèse est ciblée sur la formulation de dispersions solides amorphes par extrusion à chaud. En particulier, un principe actif d’intérêt industriel sera formulé en utilisant une extrudeuse bi-vis disponible sur la plateforme Gala®. Cette technologie autorise l’utilisation d’un grand nombre de matrices, ce qui peut nécessiter un grand nombre d’essais expérimentaux. Une attention particulière est donc portée à l’utilisation de méthodes prédictives de la miscibilité entre les composants qui peuvent ainsi permettre une première sélection des matrices. Sur la base de ces résultats, une étude sur le procédé de hot melt extrusion a ensuite été réalisée. / The aqueous solubility of new chemical entities is increasingly weak, due to their complex structure, and many API fail in development due to insufficient solubility. Many technologies exist to enhance the solubility and / or dissolution of such compounds in aqueous media. Among all of these methods, this thesis is focused on the formulation of amorphous solid dispersions by hot melt extrusion. A lot of matrix can be used to formulate with this technology, so few methods to estimate miscibility between API and matrices will also be presented in this thesis. Finally, a study about the hot melt extrusion process will also be presented.

In this dissertation, the mechanisms of nanosuspension stabilization via polymer adsorption on nanoparticle surface were investigated. As the electrokinetic behavior and colloidal stability depend on the surface characteristics, altering the surface adsorbed polymers affords the different surface properties of nanoparticles and leads to the insight on the mechanism of nanoparticle stabilization. Drug nanosuspensions were prepared by wet milling of drug with water as medium and polymers as stabilizers. Block copolymers were evaluated based on varying the hydrophobic and hydrophilic amounts, polymer concentration, and polymer affinity differences onto the nanoparticle surface. Specifically, block copolymers of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) with different EO chain lengths were used to modify the nanoparticle surface and investigate the mechanisms of stabilization by varying the ratio of hydrophobic (PO) and hydrophilic (EO) units. It was hypothesized that the PO chain of block copolymers adsorb at the solid-solution interface and the EO chain provides steric hindrance preventing aggregation. Block copolymer adsorption layer thicknesses were experimentally determined with adsorption layer thicknesses increasing from 4.7 to 9.5 nm as the number of EO increase from 26 to 133 monomer units. Nanoparticle aggregation occurred with insufficient polymer monolayer coverage and electrokinetic zeta potential greater than -20 mV. The amount of block copolymers on the surface of nanoparticles was quantified and the affinity of polymer adsorption increased as the copolymer hydrophobic units increased. The amount adsorbed and affinity provides a qualitative ranking of the affinities between a specific polymer and nanoparticle substrate to provide a method in determining the mechanism of stabilization, where specific functional groups for adsorption could be selected for maximum nanoparticle stability. A molecular modeling was conducted to visualize and support the mathematical model and the proposed mechanism of block copolymer adsorption onto a nanoparticle surface. The time lapse molecular modeling of a block copolymer in an aqueous media showed the hydrophobic units adsorbing onto the nanoparticle surface with the hydrophilic units projecting into the aqueous media. For the first time in pharmaceutical research, a systematic series of studies were conducted to elucidate the mechanisms of adsorption with both surface charge and polymer affinity analyses. A series of studies evaluating the adsorption properties polymer stabilizers provided useful information on how a block copolymer comprised of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains adsorbs onto an active pharmaceutical ingredient. A systematic set of experimental techniques were presented with novel analysis tools and predictors to construct stable nanoparticle formulations.

The static equilibrium isothermal sorption of dioxane, ethyl acetate, and methanol vapors by POM polyoxometalates with the structure of buckyball (Mo132, Mo72Fe30) and torus (Mo138), and also polymer-salt compositions containing POM were studied. The changes in the chemical potentials of the components and the Gibbs energy of the interaction of POMs, polymers, and compositions with low molecular weight liquids are calculated. The Gibbs energies and entropies of interaction of the components of the POM – polymer systems are estimated. The stability of the POM structure before and after sorption was investigated by IR spectroscopy. It was established that all investigated POMs exhibit the highest sorption capacity for dioxane, the lowest for ethyl acetate. Mo132 exhibits maximum affinity for sorbates, Mo72Fe30 exhibits a minimum affinity, and Mo138 occupies an intermediate position. It was established that PVP and PVA adsorb methanol in significantly larger quantities compared with compositions containing POM. The same rule is observed for PVP-POM systems in the case of dioxane. PVA practically does not absorb dioxane, but the introduction of POM in films of polyvinyl alcohol leads to the appearance of the sorption ability of the film. For all compositions a decrease in the Gibbs energy of the interaction of components and an increase in entropy were found, which can be associated with loosening and partial destruction of the crystal structure of the POM when polymer chains are introduced into it. The structure of polyoxomolybdates was found to be stable in dioxane vapors, and is also preserved in polymer-salt compositions before and after sorption. / Изучена статическая равновесная изотермическая сорбция паров диоксана, этилацетата и метанола полиоксометаллатами ПОМ со структурой букибола (Mo132, Mo72Fe30) и тора (Mo138), а также полимерно-солевыми композициями, содержащими ПОМ. Рассчитаны изменения химических потенциалов компонентов и энергии Гиббса взаимодействия ПОМов, полимеров, композиций с низкомолекулярными жидкостями. Оценены энергии Гиббса и энтропии взаимодействия компонентов систем ПОМ – полимер. Методами ИК- спектроскопии исследована стабильность структуры ПОМ до и после сорбции. Установлено, что наибольшую сорбционную способность все исследованные ПОМ проявляют к диоксану, наименьшую – к этилацетату. Максимальное сродство к сорбатам проявляет Mo132, минимальное – Mo72Fe30, Mo138 занимает промежуточное положение. Установлено, что ПВП и ПВС сорбируют метанол в существенно больших количествах по сравнению с композициями, содержащие ПОМ. Такая же закономерность наблюдается для систем ПВП – ПОМ в случае диоксана. ПВС практически не поглощает диоксан, но введение ПОМ в пленки поливинилового спирта приводит к возникновению сорбционной способности пленки. Для всех композиций ПОМ -полимер обнаружено уменьшение энергии Гиббса взаимодействия компонентов и возрастание энтропии, которое может быть связно с разрыхлением и частичным разрушением кристаллической структуры ПОМ при внедрении в нее полимерных цепей. Обнаружено, что структура полиоксомолибдатов стабильна в парах диоксана, а также сохраняется в полимерно-солевых композициях до и после сорбции.

En Europe, les prairies permanentes représentent l’une des principales formes d’utilisation des terres. La durabilité des services rendus par ces écosystèmes est étroitement liée à la structure et au fonctionnement des communautés végétales qui les composent. La stabilité des processus écosystémiques, sous l’impact des fluctuations environnementales, va alors dépendre des mécanismes de résistance et de récupération propres à ces communautés. Les risques d’apparition d’extrêmes climatiques liés à l’évolution du climat, rendent nécessaire une adaptation des agro-écosystèmes à cette fluctuation climatique accrue. Cela implique de mieux comprendre les mécanismes par lesquels la variabilité du climat influe sur le fonctionnement et la structure des communautés végétales, et comment les pratiques agricoles impactent ces réponses. Cette thèse à pour objectif d’évaluer la vulnérabilité des prairies permanentes à un extrême climatique combinant une canicule et une sécheresse, dans un contexte de changement climatique. Afin d’identifier et de caractériser les mécanismes intrinsèques de la résistance à la sécheresse des communautés végétales, une démarche expérimentale mobilisant les concepts de l’écologie fonctionnelle a été développée. Les effets de la variabilité climatique sur la structure (diversité, composition) et le fonctionnement des communautés végétales ont d’abord été analysés in situ pendant 3 ans, après simulation d’une canicule-sécheresse dans les conditions climatiques actuelles et sous climat modifié (réchauffement et réduction des précipitations). Pour évaluer l’influence de la gestion sur la réponse des communautés végétales aux perturbations climatiques, deux fréquences de fauches ont été appliquées. Ce travail présente l’originalité d’avoir étudié conjointement le fonctionnement aérien et souterrain de la végétation. Sont considérées la production de biomasse, la démographie et la durée de vie des racines, afin de déterminer le rôle du système racinaire dans la résistance et la récupération des communautés végétales après une canicule sécheresse. Nous montrons un effet direct de l’extrême climatique sur la sénescence aérienne et la croissance racinaire dans les deux régimes de fauches. En réponse à un déficit hydrique modéré, la stratégie d’évitement au stress par le maintien de la croissance racinaire a été favorisée par des fauches non fréquentes. A l’automne suivant, les précipitations ont permis un reverdissement rapide de la couverture végétale et la production de nouvelles racines. Une baisse significative de la production de biomasse aérienne annuelle sous climat modifié, et suite à l’application de l’extrême climatique, a été observée pendant les 3 années d’expérimentation. En revanche, la production racinaire n’a pas été significativement affectée. Néanmoins une acclimatation de la croissance racinaire a été mise en évidence un an après l’extrême, en particulier dans les communautés de fauches non fréquemment. Ces changements de fonctionnement aériens et souterrains peuvent s’expliquer en partie par des modifications de la composition botanique. De plus, en réponse aux perturbations climatiques, la mortalité racinaire a été interrompue. Ces résultats inattendus ont donc entrainé une augmentation de la durée de vie des racines et suggèrent un effet négatif sur le turnover racinaire et les cycles biogéochimiques. Une expérimentation complémentaire à l’étude in situ a été menée en conditions semicontrôlées pour déterminer les mécanismes intrinsèques de la résistance à la sécheresse de la prairie permanente. Des traits morphologiques et physiologiques, aériens et souterrains, ont été mesurés sur des monocultures de sept populations prairiales en conditions optimales, puis en conditions de sécheresse afin de caractériser leurs stratégies de survie. Les résultats ont mis en évidence le rôle du système racinaire dans la survie des plantes. (...) / In Europe, grassland is one of the dominant forms of land use. The sustainability of their environmental and ecological services is linked to plant community structure and functioning. Under climatic constraints, the stability of community functioning will depend on plant resistance and recovery mechanisms. Actually, increase in climate variability linked to climate change, is expected to lead to more frequent and more intense climate extremes.Therefore, it is necessary to adapt ecosystem management to climate variability increase. This imply to improve our knowledge on mechanisms by which climate drivers modify the structure and the functioning of plant community, and to determine how the agricultural practices affect these responses. Therefore, this study aimed to characterise vulnerability of perennial grassland to combined heat wave and severe drought and to determine mechanisms of plant community resistance to drought. For this, an experimental approach was developed based on the functional ecology concepts. The effect of climate variability on the structure (diversity and composition) and the functioning of plant community were first analyzed in situ during three years. Microclimate of the vegetation was manipulated to simulate warming, precipitation reduction, heat wave combined to severe drought. To analyse the role of grassland management in plant community responses to climate disturbances, two contrasted cutting frequencies were applied. This work has the originality to analyse both above- and below-ground processes of plant community. Thus, above- and below-ground biomass production, root demography and longevity were considered to determine the role of root system in resistance and recovery of plant community after a severe drought. In both cutting frequencies, our results showed direct effects of climate extreme on leaf senescence and root growth. However, in response to moderate water deficit, drought avoidance through maintenance of root growth was favoured by infrequent cutting frequency. After rehydration in the following autumn, canopy greenness and root growth rapidly recovered. Annual above-ground production was significantly decreased by climate change and climate extreme during the three years of the experiment. However no effect was observed on root production but acclimation of root growth was observed one year after the climate extreme, particularly under infrequent cuts. Plant community structure was significantly modified be climate disturbance and could explain change in community functioning. In addition, root mortality was surprisingly decreased in response to climate disturbance that consequently increases root longevity. These results suggest negative effects of climate disturbances on root turnover with lasting effects on nutrient cycles.To determine intrinsic mechanisms of plant community for drought resistance and recovery, an additional experiment was carried out in semi-controlled conditions. Therefore, morphological and physiological leaf and root traits were measured under full irrigation, moderate and severe drought on monocultures of seven perennial grassland populations to study plant functional strategies of drought survival. Roots were implicated in drought avoidance by maintaining water uptake and drought tolerance by accumulating sucrose and/or fructans. Morphological and physiological root traits were thus correlated to plant survivalafter drought. (...)

[pt] Durante o período compreendido entre junho e dezembro de 2014, foram coletadas amostras de MP2.5 e MP10 ao longo da orla marítima do Rio de Janeiro, com a finalidade de caracterizar quimicamente as espécies presentes, identificar as possíveis fontes e avaliar a influência do oceano nas amostras. As amostras foram coletadas por um período de 24 h utilizando Hi-Vol e filtros de fibra de vidro e quartzo. A massa do material particulado (MP) foi determinada por gravimetria. Os filtros com MP foram extraídos com água e/ou HNO3. O extrato ácido foi analisado por Espectrometria de Massas com Plasma Indutivamente Acoplado para a determinação de onze elementos. O extrato aquoso foi analisado por Cromatografia Iônica e Carbono Orgânico Total, para a determinação de íons inorgânicos e de ácidos orgânicos e carbono orgânico. As maiores concentrações de íons inorgânicos, foram obtidas para SO42->Na+>NO3->Cl->C2O42- na maioria das estações monitoradas. Em MP2,5 correlações acima de 0,7 foram observadas entre os íons NO3- e SO42-, além disso, estes aníons também apresentaram coeficientes de correlação significativos com o NH4+, sugerindo fontes antrópicas e a formação de aerossóis secundários. Por outro lado, no MP10 foi possível observar a contribuição marinha nas amostras, através das correlações fortes, entre o Na+, principal traçador de água de mar, com o Cl-, Mg2+ e Ca2+. Finalmente, através da fração mássica reconstituída se observou que as fontes naturais, representadas pelo aporte do solo e do sal marinho contribuem com cerca do 50 porcento dos aerossóis nas duas frações, apresentando maiores porcentagens no MP10, enquanto que, os aerossóis secundários predominam no MP2,5. / [en] During the period between June and December of 2014, was collected samples of PM2.5 and PM10 along the seafront of Rio de Janeiro, in order to chemically characterize the species present, identify the possible sources and evaluate the influence of the ocean in the samples. The samples were collected for a 24 h period using Hi-Vol and quartz and glass fiber filters. The particulate material (PM) mass was determined by gravimetry. The filters with PM were extracted with water and/or HNO3. The acid extract was analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry for the determination of eleven elements. The aqueous extract was analyzed by Ionic Chromatography and Total Organic Carbon, for the determination of inorganic ions and organic acids and organic carbon. The highest inorganic ions concentrations were obtained for SO42->Na+>NO3->Cl-->C2O42- in most of the monitored stations. In PM2,5 correlations were observed above 0,7 between the ions NO3- and SO42-, furthermore, this anions also showed significant correlation coefficients with NH4+, suggesting anthropogenic sources and the formation of secondary aerossols. On the other hand, in PM10 was possible to observed the marine contribution in the samples, through the strong correlations, between o Na+, major tracer of seawater, with Cl-, Mg2+ e Ca2+. Finally, through the reconstituted mass fraction it was observed that the natural sources, represented by land and sea salt contributes about 50 percent of the aerossol in the two fractions, showing higher percentages in the PM10, while, the secondary aerossol prevail in the PM2,5.

Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden Metallchalkogenid-Nanopartikel bzw. Quantum Dots größenselektiv mittels kontinuierlicher MicroJet-Reaktor-Technologie in wässrigem Medium erzeugt. Aufgrund der sehr kurzen Mischzeiten im µs- bis ms-Bereich können Keimbildung und -wachstum im MicroJet-Reaktor zeitlich voneinander separiert werden. Die Begrenzung des Partikelwachstum durch den Einsatz von Stabilisatoren oder geringer Präkursorkonzentrationen ermöglichten die Synthese von monodispersen, nanokristallinen Produkten mit sehr schmaler Partikelgrößenverteilung. Ausgehend von den wasserlöslichen Präkursoren Cadmiumnitrat und Natriumsulfid wurde sowohl eine Synthesestrategie für elektrostatisch- als auch Liganden-stabilisierte CdS-Nanopartikel entwickelt. Es wurden zahlreiche Reaktionsparameter wie Temperatur, Präkursorverhältnis, Konzentration oder Fällungsmittel variiert und der Einfluss auf die Partikelgröße überprüft. In weiteren Untersuchungen konnte die Übertragbarkeit der MicroJet-Reaktor-Synthese auf die Metallchalkogenide Cadmiumzinksulfid, Silbersulfid und Silberindiumsulfid validiert werden. Auch komplexere Systeme wie Core/Shell Partikel sind mittels postsynthetischer Beschichtung der im MicroJet-Reaktor hergestellten Nanopartikel möglich.

Due to the short mixing times in the µs to ms range, crystallite nucleation and crystal growth are well separated and enable concentration-limited particle growth. Alternatively, particle growth can be limited by stabilizers. Starting from the water-soluble precursors Cd(NO3)2 and Na2S, a synthesis strategy for both electrostatic and ligand stabilized CdS nanoparticles in aqueous medium was developed. The nanocrystalline products obtained were characterized by a narrow, monodisperse particle size distribution. Examining the influence of the particle size, numerous reaction parameters e. g. temperature, ratio of precursors, concentration or precipitant were varied. In further investigations, the transferability of the MicroJet Reactor synthesis to the metal chalcogenides (Cd,Zn)S, Ag2S and AgInS2 was validated. By means of post-synthetic coating of the nanoparticles produced in the MicroJet Reactor, more complex systems such as CdS/ZnS or Ag2S/ZnS core/shell particles are accessible.
