Abstract [en]

The high-resolution humidity scanning QCM-D technique enables investigation of hydration of soft matter films using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) equipped with a humidity module. Based on a continuous increase of relative humidity, properties of soft matter films can be investigated depending on the water content of the surrounding atmosphere. Determination of complete water sorption isotherms is possible via analysis of the overtone dependence of the resonance frequencies. Rheological properties are monitored via measurement of the dissipation. The glass transition can be identified from the change of viscoelastic properties of the film reflected in changes of the dissipation. A high-resolution water sorption isotherm of lysozyme was measured and compared with results from water sorption calorimetry. Analysis of the rheological behavior during hydration of lysozyme films revealed the presence of two separate sharp transitions at the water activities 0.67 and 0.91, which are connected to the glass transition. In previous works, only the existence of a broad glass transition has been reported so far. Combining the QCM-D data with Raman scattering data presented earlier, a new mechanism of isothermal glass transition in lysozyme is proposed.
