Tablets and Granules
Home Care, Personal Care, Agricultural Industry
SSP’s PVPPs, long recognized in the pharmaceutical industry as a premier superdisintegrant for solid dosage forms, combine the dual mechanisms of wicking and swelling, making it a unique single polymer. This combination also positions SSP’s PVPP as an innovative tableting excipient for applications in home care, personal care, and agricultural products, where rapid disintegration and efficient performance are critical.
Functionality:
SSP’s PVPPs effectiveness as a superdisintegrant is driven by two complementary mechanisms:
- Wicking Effect: SSP’s PVPPs porous structure and hydrophilic nature enable it to draw water into a tablet or granule. This absorption facilitates rapid hydration, softening the matrix and promoting disintegration.
- Swelling Effect: Upon water absorption, PVPP’s polymer chains expand significantly, creating mechanical pressure that breaks apart tablets or granules.
Typical Dosage Level:
2-8% of the tablet’s weight, formulation dependent.
