Benecel K4M PH DC

Description

Benecel methylcellulose (MC) and hypromellose (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose or HPMC) are versatile excipients with a variety of applications. Ashland offers various substitution low molecular weight types and grades of HPMC hypromellose.

benecel™ hypromellose (hydroxypropyl-methylcellulose or HPMC) is a versatile excipient with a variety of applications: HPMC is the most widely used polymer in hydrophilic matrix systems with widespread use in controlled-release dosage forms.

benecel™ directly compressible grades, benecel™ DC, enable the production of controlled-release formulations with the convenience of the most widely used tablet-binding mechanism. These benecel™ DC HPMC grades offer good powder flow, content uniformity, and compressibility, making them well suited for direct compression.

features and benefits:
o Improves product flow characteristics
o Reduces processing times
o Identical, stable dissolution profiles compared with “CR” grades
o Improves content uniformity
o Reduces production costs
o Retains tensile strength after double compaction (roller compaction) process
