Kollicoat® IR (polyvinyl alcohol polyethylene glycol graft copolymer) was designed as an instant release film-forming agent. In principle, water-soluble polymers can act as wet binders in tablet manufacturing.
As a binder Kollicoat® IR is characterized by
- good flowability of the granules
- high tablet hardness
- low ejection forces
- short disintegration times.
- due to the low peroxide level it is highly suitable for low dosed and oxygen sensitive drugs.
