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-112 has a typical average particle size of 100 µm and lower moisture content of not more than 1.2%. Avicel® PH-112 is primarily used for direct compression, and dry granulation/roller compaction for moisture sensitive Active Ingredients (APIs). The particle size of Avicel® PH-112 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.

POLYOX™ WSR - N80 LEO NF Grade with its off-white color and powder form, exhibits versatile applications. In cosmetics, it functions as both a binder and a thickener, while in industrial additives, it serves similar purposes, offering water solubility for ease of use across various formulations.

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-301 has a typical average particle size of 50 µm with a high bulk density of approximately 0.4 g/cc, compared to 0.3 g/cc for most other Avicel® grades. Avicel® PH-301 is primarily used for high shear wet granulation and direct compression. The high bulk density provides increased flowability resulting in improved blending characteristics and tablet uniformity. The high density also helps improve consistency and throughput of the capsule filling process.

METHOCEL™ K100M Premium DC2 HPMC is water-soluble and widely used in various industrial and pharmaceutical applications. In ceramics, it acts as a binder, while in pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, it serves as a controlled release agent, film former, flow promoter, gelling agent, and immediate release agent, ensuring multifunctionality and versatility.

Ac-Di-Sol® Croscarmellose Sodium is an internally cross-linked sodium carboxymethylcellulose. It is the super disintegrant of choice for many immediate release formulations. Ac-Di-Sol® is an insoluble and hydrophilic polymer with excellent water uptake and rapid swelling properties; supporting faster disintegration and drug dissolution at lower use levels (2-3%). Ac-Di-Sol® can be used in all manufacturing processes, including higher shear wet granulation, fluid bed granulation, direct compression, and dry granulation. Besides its disintegrating properties, Ac-Di-Sol® Croscarmellose Sodium has good binding and compaction properties.
