NANOPARTICLE MIXTURES OF ANTHRACENE AND β-CYCLODEXTRIN
TESTING BY OPTICAL SPECTROSCOPY

Alexandra Bezrukova, Monika Lubomska and Marek Rogalski

Abstract

This contribution reported the inverse optical problem solution for characterization of interactions between anthracene and different concentrations of b-cyclodextrin in water dispersions by optical spectroscopy: absorption spectra, integral static (time average) light scattering spectra, and intensity of differential static light scattering at 90 degrees. These measurements are compatible, nondestructive, and can provide information about the processes in "ill-defined" three-dimensional disperse systems (3D DS) with nanoparticle mixtures: aggregation and inclusion of anthracene in b-cyclodextrin.
