Compaction and Structural-Mechanical Properties of Tablets as a Function of Volume Ratios of…
Introduction
Using in tablet formulations microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) with plastic behaviour and calcium phosphate anhydrous (CaHPO4 ) with brittle behaviour under compaction is very popular in the pharmaceutical industry for achieving desirable structural-mechanical properties of tablets.…

Twin-Screw Melt Granulation with PEG 8000: effect of binder particle size and processing temperature…
Introduction
High-drug-loaded tablets and capsules are desirable and are manufactured using granulation as an additional step. Replacing batch wet granulation with twin-screw melt extruder as a continuous solventless process is gaining popularity. PEG 8000 being one of the most popular…

Impact of dry coating lactose as a brittle excipient on multi-component blend processability
Abstract
Previous work demonstrated the benefits of dry coating fine-grade microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) for enabling direct compression (DC), a favored tablet manufacturing method, due to enhanced flowability while retaining good compactability of placebo and binary blends of cohesive APIs.…

Tablet Disintegratability: Sensitivity of Superdisintegrants to Temperature and Compaction Pressure
Tablet disintegration is an important pre-requisite for drug dissolution and absorption. The disintegration test is typically conducted at 37 °C, but the intragastric temperature may vary due to meals or fever. This study investigated the effects of temperature and compaction pressure on tablet…
