General description

With formulation challenges in mind, we have used particle engineering technologies to develop functional excipients specifically for solid dosage forms. The products in our Parteck® portfolio feature unique particle properties tailored for excellent performance in tableting processes, for specific drug delivery technologies, or for solubility enhancement.
As part of our Emprove® Program, our raw materials are offered with extensive documentation facilitating compliance of your pharma and biopharma product, full supply chain transparency and risk mitigation. Our SAFC® portfolio of high-quality products for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical formulation and production withstands strict quality control procedures and is produced according to applicable cGMP guidelines.

Application

Parteck® SI excipient is a directly compressible sorbitol which combines excellent tableting behavior, resulting in very robust and shiny tablets, with a pleasant mouthfeel and taste. The unique and large surface area allows for a fast disintegration and dissolution, even at high tablet hardnesses and supports a good content uniformity of low dose API formulations. Parteck® SI excipient comes in a variety of particle sizes and qualities to meet the needs of a very wide range of applications.

Features and Benefits

  • Excellent direct compression properties
  • High dilution and adsorption capacity
  • Larger and highly structured surface area
  • Low hygroscopicity
  • Low amount of reducing sugars

Preparation Note

Storage temperature: no restrictions.
