CompactCel® FLO

1 of 10 products in this brand
CompactCel® FLO is a flow agent for loosening powder mixtures and improving flowability. The ready-touse powder compound replaces synthetic additives such as silicon dioxide. It prevents bridge formation during flow from hopper and provides a clean funnel flow of the powder mass to be processed during both tableting and capsule filling.

Product Information
  • The non-synthetic premix is used in the pharmaceutical but also in the nutraceutical industry. It consists of small particles and adheres to the particle surface of bulk materials, thereby reducing the adhesion force and increasing the flowability.
  • In the pharmaceutical version, raw materials are used that meet the relevant pharmacopeia criteria. For the nutraceutical industry, on the other hand, only natural and label friendly raw materials are used in the formulation.
  • The formulations for the nutraceutical industry are available in two different kinds. One is the natural variant, which contains finely selected natural ingredients, and the other is the CompactCel® FLO Organic variant, which contains only certified organic ingredients. It supports the Clean Label strategies for nutritional products and is also certified with the EU and US label for organic food.

Technical Details & Test Data

Flowability Comparison of Different Glidants

CompactCel® FLO - Flowability Comparison of Different Glidants

CompactCel® FLO - Flowability Comparison of Different Glidants - 1The angle of repose shows the maximum angle of inclination at which, e. g. powder
mixtures remain in place without slipping. The addition of CompactCel® FLO to the
microcrystalline cellulose 102 has a positive effect on the flowability – comparable to
the addition of silicon dioxide.
