TLDR
In this article, the microscopic structures in ethanol-water binary mixtures were examined by analyzing the mass spectra of clusters generated through fragmentation of liquid droplets, from the effects of temperature and mixing ratios on the cluster structures.

Effects of cyclodextrins on drug delivery through biological membranes.

TL;DR: The nature of secondary equilibria and competition between cyclodextrins and rheologically important biopolymers such as mucin are assessed to give a complete picture of the effect of these starch derivatives.

Raman Spectroscopy of Water-Ethanol Solutions: The Estimation of Hydrogen Bonding Energy and the Appearance of Clathrate-like Structures in Solutions.

TL;DR: This work presents the Raman scattering spectra of water, ethanol, and water-ethanol solutions with 20 and 70 vol % of ethanol thoroughly measured and analyzed at temperatures varying from -10 to +70 °C and finds the energy of hydrogen bonding in 20 vol% of ethanol was found the highest among all the samples.

Solvent determines the formation and properties of metal–organic frameworks

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of a water-sensitive metal-organic framework (MOF), Cu3(BTC)2 (BTC = 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate), in a water/ethanol solvent system was studied systematically.

Free Volume and Entropy in Condensed Systems III. Entropy in Binary Liquid Mixtures; Partial Molal Entropy in Dilute Solutions; Structure and Thermodynamics in Aqueous Electrolytes

TL;DR: The first and second papers in this series, which make it possible to interpret entropy data in terms of a physical picture, are applied to binary solutions, and equations are derived relating energy and volume changes when a solution is formed to the entropy change for the process as discussed by the authors.

Molecular segregation observed in a concentrated alcohol–water solution

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used neutron diffraction with isotope substitution to probe the molecular-scale structure of a concentrated alcohol-water mixture (7:3 molar ratio) and found that most of the water molecules exist as small hydrogen-bonded strings and clusters in a 'fluid' of close-packed methyl groups, with water clusters bridging neighbouring methanol hydroxyl groups through hydrogen bonding.

Molecular structure of alcohol-water mixtures

TL;DR: The x-ray emission spectroscopy results provide a new explanation for a smaller entropy increase in the solution due to water molecules bridging methanol chains to form rings.

Methanol-water solutions: a bi-percolating liquid mixture.

TL;DR: An extensive series of neutron diffraction experiments and molecular dynamics simulations has shown that mixtures of methanol and water exhibit extended structures in solution despite the components being fully miscible in all proportions, and the observed concentration dependence of several material properties of the solution may have a structural origin.
