Dextrates
Dextrates is a directly compressible tablet diluent used in chewable, nonchewable, soluble, dispersible, and effervescent tablets. It is a free-flowing material and glidants are thus unnecessary. Lubrication with magnesium stearate (0.5–1.0% w/w) is recommended. Dextrates may also be used as a binding agent by the addition of water, no further binder being required.
Acacia
Acacia is mainly used in oral and topical pharmaceutical formulations as a suspending and emulsifying agent, often in combination with tragacanth. It is also used in the preparation of pastilles and lozenges, and as a tablet binder, although if used incautiously it can produce tablets with a prolonged disintegration time. Acacia has also been evaluated […]
Copovidone K25-31
Copovidone is used as a tablet binder, a film-former, and as part of the matrix material used in controlled-release formulations. In tableting, copovidone can be used as a binder for direct compression and as a binder in wet granulation. Copovidone is often added to coating solutions as a film-forming agent. It provides good adhesion, elasticity, […]
Dimethylaminoethyl Methacrylate – Butyl Methacrylate – Methyl Methacrylate Copolymer
Formulations as film-coating agents. Depending on the type of polymer used, films of different solubility characteristics can be produced. BUTYL METHACRYLATE E is used as a plain or insulating film former.
Ethyl Acrylate And Methyl Methacrylate Copolymer (2:1; 750000 Mw)
Polymethacrylates are primarily used in oral capsule and tablet formulations as film-coating agents. Depending on the type of polymer used, films of different solubility characteristics can be produced. This copolymer is used as a plain or insulating film former.
Methacrylic Acid – Ethyl Acrylate Copolymer (1:1) Type A
Polymethacrylates are primarily used in oral capsule and tablet formulations as film-coating agents. Depending on the type of polymer used, films of different solubility characteristics can be produced. This copolymer is used as a plain or insulating film former.
Polydextrose
Polydextrose is used in pharmaceutical formulations and food products. In food products it is used as a bulking agent; it also has texturizing and humectant properties. Although polydextrose can be used in a wide range of pharmaceutical formulations, its primary use is in solid-dosage forms. In tableting, polydextrose solutions are used as binders in wetgranulation […]
