In pharmaceutical industry, powder mixture included active product ingredient (API) and other ingredients, can be compressed into a tablet or filled into a capsule.
The powder must possess a number of physical characteristics including flowability, cohesiveness, compressibility, and lubrication. Some of the pharmaceutical materials already have these required physical characteristics, the all ingredients are mixed for tablet compression or capsule filling directly. Since most pharmaceutical materials do not possess all of these required properties, granulation methods are commonly used to impart the required characteristics.
Wet granulation and dry granulation are the two most common methods of preparing granules for tablet compression or capsule manufacture.
This course provides informations, evaluations, and explanations on the contents of mixing, wet granulation, spray granulation (fluid bed granulation) and dry granulation (roller compaction) manufacturing technologies in the scope of pharmaceutical industry.
Besides defining of these powder technologies used for tablet / film coated tablet / capsule manufacturing, Quality Target Product Profile (QTPP), Critical Material Attributes (CMAs), Critical Process Parameters (CPPs) and Critrical Quality Attributes (CQAs) of these manufacturing technologies have been also described in this course.
