Terahertz spectroscopy detection of zinc citrate dihydrate and its dehydration kinetics
Terahertz Time Domain Spectroscopy(THz-TDS) is employed to detect the Zinc Citrate (ZC) dihydrate and its dehydration kinetics. Results show that there are two prominent absorption peaks: one at 1.91 THz, the other at 1.77 THz for the ZC dihydrate, while there is no featuring absorption peak for ZC anhydrate at room temperature. When the temperature increases, the absorption peak of ZC dihydrate at 1.91 THz decreases and gradually disappears. According to the variation of the absorption peak area of ZC dihydrate at 1.91 THz under different temperatures and heating time, the enthalpy change of ZC dihydrate transforming to anhydrate is 381.13 J/g(232.6 kJ/mol) by using the Arrhenius equation, and the error is 4.2% compared with the traditional Differential Scanning Calorimetry(DSC) measurement. These results indicate that THz-TDS can be used as an efficient and fast technique for the detection of ZC dihydrate and its dehydration kinetics.
