As instant release film former, Kollicoat® IR combines exceptional coating quality with simple, robust processing. As wet binder, it combines powerful binding with no peroxides at all. And all those characteristics also make it a great pore former for sustained release formulations.
Excipients for Drug Formulation
Kollicoat® IR
Kollicoat® IR is one of our true multitalents for instant release
Kollicoat® IR is a robust yet flexible polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene glycol graft copolymer. This water-soluble film-forming agent is ideal for manufacturing instant-release coatings for solid dosage forms – and for applications such as binding, pore forming and drug layering. Kollicoat® IR’s high pigment-loading capacity makes the spraying process easier and faster. And because dispersions made using Kollicoat® IR have low viscosity despite their high solids content, coating can be significantly accelerated. The result? Highly reliable, cost-effective processes that produce first-class results every time.
