The Spheronization Process
Spheronization is a rapid and flexible manufacturing process that creates small spheres or spheroids for pharmaceutical products. Spheronized products are dense with a uniform size and shape with a defined surface.
- Powder mix of ingredients/ Formula creation
- Formula converted into a plastic mass
- Extruded and processed through a spheronizer
- Spheres are then dried and coated
- Produces a perfectly round, hard, and smooth sphere
FEATURES:
- Approximately 0.6 to 3 mm in diameter
- High level of active ingredients in each sphere
- Rapid and flexible manufacturing process
- Dense with uniform shape
- Customizable ingredients, colors, and formulas
- Specific time release properties
- Enteric coating
- Mixing of incompatible ingredients
- Dust elimination
- Spheres can be combined into a capsule or tablet
- High volume capacity
- Product differentiation
BENEFITS OF ENTERIC COATING:
- Blocks oxidation
- Blocks moisture
- Eliminates taste
- Eliminates odor
- Protects the sphere from ambient heat
- Keeps the product intact during transport, storage, and display
- Controls the release of the formula:
- Immediate
- Delayed
- Sustained
- Compounded
