Reliable Delayed Release ProtectionThis solvent base enteric coating safeguards sensitive actives from gastric acid, enabling controlled release in the intestine. Its smooth, flexible film prevents cracking and ensures consistent drug performance, meeting stringent USP/EP standards. Suitable for tablets and capsules, it delivers reliable, delayed-release benefits essential for pharmaceutical preparations.
Efficient Application & HandlingOptimized for both pan and fluid bed coating, this powder disperses well and forms uniform films with recommended acetone/ethanol solvents. Its low moisture content and particle size (100300 microns) ensure easy processing, while convenient HDPE drum packaging extends shelf life and maintains product stability during storage and transit.
FAQs of Solvent Base Enteric Coating:
Q: How should Solvent Base Enteric Coating be applied to tablets or capsules?
A: The product is suitable for both pan and fluid bed coating methods using an acetone/ethanol blend as the solvent. Ensure dispersion of the powder under controlled conditions and follow standard pharmaceutical coating protocols for optimal results.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this enteric coating?
A: It forms a flexible, crack-resistant, and smooth enteric film that enables delayed or enteric release, protecting active pharmaceutical ingredients from acidic environments and ensuring targeted delivery in the intestine.
Q: When should this enteric coating be considered for pharmaceutical formulations?
A: Use this coating when delayed or enteric release of the active ingredient is needed, particularly for drugs sensitive to stomach acid. It is suitable for both tablets and capsules requiring protection until they reach the intestine.
Q: Where should the Solvent Base Enteric Coating be stored?
A: Store the powder in a cool, dry, and dark place in tightly closed HDPE drums or triple-layer PE bags to preserve its quality and shelf life of up to two years.
Q: What process ensures the coating meets disintegration tests?
A: The formulation is engineered to pass USP/EP disintegration tests for enteric coatings, ensuring it remains intact in the stomach and disintegrates in the intestinal pH environment as required.
Q: Is this enteric coating compatible with all plasticizers?
A: It is compatible with most typical enteric plasticizers, allowing formulators flexibility in achieving desired film properties for various pharmaceutical products.
