The co-crystal formation was carried out by solid state milling process. Co-crystal by solution co-crystallization and physical mixture were also prepared as a comparison. The potential co-crystalline phase was characterized by powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD), thermal analysis differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Fourier transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Effect of milling time on formation of co-crystal sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim was investigated by DSC and PXRD analysis. The study showed that the milling process of sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim in equimolar yielded the co-crystal. Intact co-crystal was obtained by solution co-crystallization with methanol. Prolongation of milling time accelerated the formation of co-crystal. Physical characterization showed that sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim co-crystal demonstrated a unique powder X-ray diffraction, thermal and spectroscopic properties. The study concludes that the milling process induces equimolar co-crystal formation between sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim. The transformation to co-crystalline phase is affected by milling time.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Co-crystal,Milling process,Sulfamethoxazole,Trimethoprim[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.7324/JAPS.2017.71224[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
