Thermodynamic Functions of the Betamethasone Valerate Hormone
摘要
Abstract
The temperature dependence of the heat capacity of betamethasone valerate in the range from 5.5 to 346 K was measured for the first time by precise vacuum adiabatic calorimetry. The thermodynamic functions of betamethasone valerate, namely, heat capacity, enthalpy H°(T) – H°(0), entropy S°(T) – S°(0), and Gibbs function G°(T) – H°(0) were determined for the temperature range from T → 0 to 350 K based on the experimental data. The thermal expansion coefficients were determined by low temperature powder X-ray diffractometry.
