Avicel® CE-15 a non-animal-derived ingredient, is widely employed in tablet production. It's adaptable to various manufacturing methods like direct compression, dry granulation, and wet granulation. In pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications, it acts as a binder, compression aid, filler, immediate release agent, and suspension aid. It's supplied in powder form for easy tablet formulation.

Microcrystalline Cellulose is purified, partially depolymerized cellulose prepared by treating alpha cellulose obtained as a pulp from fibrous plant material with mineral acids. Several grades of Avicel® PH MCC are available varying in particle size distribution, density and moisture content. Avicel® PH microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is most often used as a filler, disintegrant, flow aid, and dry binder for tablets and capsules. Avicel® PH-102 has a typical average particle size of 100 µm and moisture content between 3 and 5%. Avicel® PH-102 is primarily used for direct compression, and dry granulation/roller compaction. The particle size of Avicel® PH-102 provides good flow characteristics. When compressed, Avicel® PH MCC undergoes plastic deformation. The strength of MCC tablets results from hydrogen bonding between the plastically deformed, large surface area cellulose particles. MCC is recognized as the most compactable of any direct compression excipient.

Several grades of Avicel® PH MCC are available varying in particle size distribution, density and moisture content. Avicel® PH microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is most often used as a filler, disintegrant, flow aid, and dry binder for tablets and capsules. Avicel® PH-105 has a typical average particle size of 20 µm and moisture content of not more than 5%. Avicel® PH-105 is primarily used in small amounts (5-10%) with other Avicel® MCC grades, like Avicel® PH-102 and PH -101, to boost tensile strength of a tablet. Avicel® PH-105 has smallest particle size thus increasing cellulose surface area for hydrogen bonding resulting in most compactable of the Avicel® PH products.
