Study on drying quality of pill (false drying, surface crust, and cracks) is the difficulty in pharmaceutic research of Chinese materia medica (CMM). The influence mechanism and relationship of quality of CMM pill during drying and storage are still in the experimental stage, and there is no more appropriate theory to explain and research. This paper attempts to use glass transition theory to explore drying characteristics and physical state change process and mechanism of quality change and to control the quality change of strategy of CMM pill during drying and storage.
