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 compression Aid, filler, flow aid, and dry binder for tablets and capsules. Avicel® PH-101 has a typical average particle size of 50 µm and moisture content between 3 and 5%. Avicel® PH-101 is primarily used for wet granulation, extrusion spherization and tablet compression. Avicel® PH MCC rapidly absorbs aqueous binder solution permitting faster addition of fluid as well as shorter wet massing time. At the same time, the water does not become bound water resulting in faster drying time and uniform granular properties.

Avicel® SMCC - 90 composed of microcrystalline cellulose, is utilized in various manufacturing technologies, including direct compression, dry granulation, and wet granulation. It serves as both a filler and an immediate release agent in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications.

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.

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-302 has a typical average particle size of 100 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-302 is primarily used for direct compression, and dry granulation/roller compaction. 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.
