Description

ETHOCEL™ Premium Ethylcellulose Resins are water-insoluble polymers. They are soluble in a wide range of pharmaceutically acceptable organic solvents used for spray coating. Their excellent compatibility allows use of ETHOCEL™ polymers with many basic ingredients across a broad array of pharmaceutical applications such as controlled-release matrix systems, multiparticulate coatings, and microencapsulation. They are also useful as non aqueous granulation binders and in taste-masking of actives.
