Product Innovation on Modified Release Coatings

(Sustained Release and Enteric Coatings)

Developing modified coatings that produce a reliable and stable release is still a challenge. Only a few polymers - polyvinylacetate, ethylcellulose and methacrylates - are suitable for this purpose and have very different characteristics.

 

In this webinar, you will gain an in-depth knowledge about the relevant requirements for modified release coatings and how they can be fulfilled, for instance by choosing a suitable polymer, the proper formulation and the best process parameters.

 

Furthermore you will learn about:

Sustained Release Coatings

  • The role of the coating, the core and interaction between the core and coating;
  • An innovative single unit dosage form that prevents dose dumping;
  • Compression of pellets into multiple unit particulate system forms.
     

Enteric Coatings

  • Properties and stability of methacrylic acid 30% dispersion in enteric coatings of soft gelatin capsules;
  • Formulation challenges and solutions.
