EMCOMPRESS®

Description

Dibasic Calcium Phosphates Dihydrate & Anhydrous, Tribasic Calcium Phosphate

EMCOMPRESS^® Calcium Phosphates are water-insoluble functional fillers for wet granulation and direct compression applications. EMCOMPRESS^® offers improved flow for all powder mixtures, including poorly flowing APIs and plant extracts.

EMCOMPRESS ^®  is available as:

• Anhydrous Calcium Hydrogen Phosphate (DCP anhydrous)
• Calcium Hydrogen Phosphate Dihydrate (DCP dihydrate)
• Tribasic Calcium Phosphate (TCP)

Benefits:

• Enhanced flow in powder mixtures (DC grades)
• Ability to produce very dense and small tablets
• Robust tablets by synergistic effects with microcrystalline cellulose
• Less sensitive towards lubricants compared to plastically deforming materials
• Good performance in combination with a wide variety of APIs including sticky herbal extracts
• Acts as pH buffer in formulation with sensitive APIs
• Perfectly suited for high-speed tableting due to low strain rate sensitivity
• Inorganic – no risk of BSE/TSE contamination and free of allergens
• High chemical stability, especially for anhydrous grades
• High supply security due to multiple production sites
