Abstract | ||||
The compression characteristics of eight different readily compressible excipients were studied using an instrumented single punch tablet machine. These excipients were chosen according to their nature as follows: Lactose for tableting (Merck), Lactose DMV and EMDEX being sugar nature, Starch 1500 and Maltodextrin MD 02 being starch in nature, Avicel pH 101 and Elcema p 100 being cellulose in nature in addition to Emcompress (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate). The application of the instrumented tablet machine offered a good scientific comparison for the compression characteristics of these tablets excipients. | ||||
