TL;DR: SCF-processed SCLs showed a recognition ability and a higher affinity for flurbiprofen in aqueous solution than for the structurally related ibuprofen and dexamethasone, which suggests the creation of molecularly imprinted cavities driven by both physical and chemical interactions.

Some Reflections on Acid-Base Solid Surface Free Energy Theories
C. Della Volpe,Stefano Siboni +1 more
TL;DR: The correctness of the application of Good-van Oss theory to the calculation of acid-base components of solid surface free energies is considered, and it is shown that they can be rationalized or eliminated with more acid solvents being included in the solvent set and the properties of the reference solvent being correctly chosen.
