The cocrystal was prepared by grinding, solvent-Assisted grinding and ultrasound-assisted cocrystallization methods. They were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and morphology by electron microscopy. In conclusion, ultrasound can be applied as a process intensification parameter along with cooling or slurry cocrystallization to produce pure cocrystals under conditions that might result in crystal mixtures in conventional processes. %K Carbamazepine %K Nicotinamide %K Cocrystal %K Ultrasound %U http://www.oalib.com/paper/6758077
