Exploring molecular interactions of sucrose in aqueous potassium clavulanate solutions at different temperatures: volumetric and acoustic approaches

Density and acoustic measurements as a function of temperature and ambient pressure have been used to examine molecular interactions, structural variables, and hydration behaviour in the ternary (potassium clavulanate/sucrose + water) system.

Taken together, these characteristics suggested that the investigated ternary combination possessed substantial solute-solvent interactions at the temperature and composition investigated.
