Product Information

The dry milled powdered compound is a ready-to-use film coating system that provides moisture sealing properties and a highly flexible film on solid oral dosage forms for immediate release profiles.

Beside the protection barrier against water vapor, the film-forming polymer used in the formulation also achieves good taste masking features and enables a robust processing. When working with AquaPolish® PRO high solid content suspensions with a high pigment load can be prepared. This accelerates the coating process significantly compared to cellulose based coatings. A process time reduction, which minimizes costs, is guaranteed. Due to low tackiness of films a very smooth tablet surface that facilitates the swallowing of tablets can be achieved. In addition the tablets get an esthetic look.

Benefits Over Technical Results

The high elasticity of the film, which has a much higher elongation at break value than cellulose derivatives,prevents film cracking on the tablets. Furthermore, a high logo definition can be obtained. The low viscosity in water, high solubility and fast dissolution ease the suspension preparation and fasten the spraying process. Also the possibility to use a wide range of process para-meters (inlet/outlet air, atomizing air, product bed temperature etc.) simplifies the process and makes it more comfortable and successful.
