Thermophysical Behavior and Molecular Interactions of Caffeine in a Novel Menthol–Resorcinol Type V Deep Eutectic Solvent
A nonionic type V deep eutectic solvent (DES) combining hydrophobic (−)-menthol and hydrophilic resorcinol was prepared and investigated as a solvent for amphiphilic caffeine. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis were first used to determine the eutectic composition and characterize its ther...
