Microcrystalline Cellulose101
advantage in providing outstanding comprehensive performance for direct compression processes. It integrates the key functions of diluent, binder, and disintegrant, significantly simplifying the formulation and production processes. PH101 has excellent compressibility, capable of forming hard tablets even under lower pressures, and can quickly absorb water and swell to ensure good disintegration. It is precisely this perfect balance among compressibility, multifunctionality, stability, and cost-effectiveness that has established PH101's irreplaceable position in the pharmaceutical industry.
Microcrystalline cellulose 101 is a cellulose derivative widely used in the pharmaceutical, food and cosmetic industries. It is a microcrystalline substance obtained by chemical treatment of natural cellulose and possesses excellent fluidity, compressibility and stability.
1.The pharmaceutical industry (the most important)
Direct compression: This is the core application of Microcrystalline CellulosePH101. Due to its three functions of dilution, binding and disintegration, it has become the "star excipient" in the direct compression process, which can greatly simplify the production process and save time and cost.
Wet granulation: It can also be used in the wet granulation process as a filler and disintegrant.
Capsule filling: It is used as a diluent for filling hard capsules.
Drug carrier: It is used to adsorb liquid drugs and convert them into easily handled powders.
2. Food industry
Anti-caking agents: Used in shredded cheese, salt, powdered seasonings, etc., to prevent caking.
Dietary fiber: As a calorie-free dietary fiber supplement, it is used in low-calorie foods and health foods.
Fat substitutes: In some low-fat products, they are used to simulate the taste and texture of fat.
Stabilizers and thickeners: Used in ice cream, salad dressings, etc.
3. Cosmetics industry
It is used as an adsorbent and filler in products such as powder compacts and foundations.
