Microcrystalline Cellulose is a kind of purified and partially depolymerized cellulose. It is white, odorless and tasteless. It is a crystalline powder composed of porous particles. Microcrystalline cellulose is widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetics, food and other industries. It is often used as adsorbent, suspending agent, diluent, adhesive, disintegrating agent and so on.
1. Our company divides microcrystalline cellulose into various specifications according to different bulk density and degree of polymerization, which better solves the compressibility and dissolution of solid preparations and helps to improve the adhesion and disintegration of tablets.
2. According to the molding process of microcrystalline cellulose and different particle size, our company divides microcrystalline cellulose into ordinary 101, dispersed 101, ordinary 102, dispersed 102 and other specifications to meet the characteristics of tablet production process.
3. According to different uses of products, our company has developed microcrystalline cellulose for casing, which effectively solves the defects of protein casing, such as collapse, crack and fracture.
Main uses: it is mainly used as diluent and adhesive in oral agents and capsules. It can be used for wet granulation and dry direct tablet pressing. It has certain lubrication and disintegration.
Microcrystalline cellulose, as a widely used pharmaceutical excipient, is mainly used in oral solid preparations. It is used as disintegrating agent, adhesive and filler in the preparation. It also has certain lubricity and anti adhesion properties. It can be used for direct tablet pressing or wet granulation tablet pressing. Due to different purposes, the use amount is different:
As a disintegrating agent for tablets, the dosage is generally 5-15%.
It is used as adhesive and filler of solid preparation, and the dosage is generally 20-90%.
As an anti adhesion agent for solid preparations, the dosage is generally 5-20%.
When used as adsorbent, the dosage is generally 20-90%.
