ETHOCELâ„¢ Premium Ethylcellulose Resins

ETHOCELâ„¢ Premium Ethylcellulose Resins
Product Description

An excellent choice for modified release

ETHOCELâ„¢ premium ethylcellulose resins are water-insoluble polymers. They are soluble in a wide range of organic solvents, beginning with aliphatic alcohols such as ethanol and isopropanol, and are compatible with most other familiar organic solvent chemistries, including ether alcohols, ketones, aromatic hydrocarbons and many more.

Beyond barrier membrane coatingsAs a water insoluble film-forming material, ETHOCELâ„¢ polymers are useful for taste masking pharmaceutical active ingredients in addition to forming controlled release coatings for multiparticulates or providing an additional moisture barrier for water sensitive ingredients.

ETHOCELâ„¢ polymers also have excellent thermoplastic properties and are capable of being melt extruded into various forms. Fine powder (FP) grades of ETHOCELâ„¢ can be compressed to form hydrophilic matrix tablets for oral controlled release with a non-gel forming mechanism which provides an alternative drug release profile as compared to traditional alternatives.

  • Whitepaper Sodium Alginate for Anti-reflux Suspensions – Study of Effect of Alginate Quality and Formulation Variables

    Treatment for GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is generally targeted for gastric acid neutralization and suppression of gastric acid production and/or secretion. However, another key approach to alleviate the condition is minimizing the exposure of the esophagus to acidic refluxate via raft-forming anti-reflux preparation wherein a viscous gel forms a physical barrier above the stomach contents and prevents it from refluxing back into the esophagus. This whitepaper from DuPont provides key insights into how sodium alginate acts as the key functional ingredient in anti-reflux formulations but also how the combined functionality of all ingredients creates the raft forming function via optimum concentration in formulation.
