Solid oral dosage forms are coated to apply a range of functions: from attractive colored instant-release coatings or robust taste-masking to functional coatings defining enteric or sustained release. BASF offers all major coating types plus as well as plasticizers for your successful coating formulation.

Melt granulation is a great process option in a formulators' biovailability enhancement arsenal. A meltable binder is used to agglomerate drug and other ingredients to reduce recrystallization potential through separation. BASF offer all functional materials required for a successful formulation using melt granulation.

Direct compression (DC) is the most economic way to produce a tablet as it is the shortest and most direct way to get from powder mix to final dosage form. BASF offers all functional excipients to successfully develop a DC process for your drug, including key elements like appropriate binder and lubricant.

Hot-melt extrusion has been used in the plastics & food industries for decades. In the 1980s, BASF became the first company to apply it to the production of pharmaceuticals for enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble actives. Today, HME is an accepted process for creating solid dispersions of APIs.

Spray drying is an established technology in the pharmaceutical industry to create amorphous, soluble forms of active ingredients. Key for a successful process is the use of the right functional polymer to ensure a stable solid dispersion. BASF offers a wide range of functional polymers to choose from, along with all other excipients typically used in the formulation.

BASF offers the key functional materials required to achieve great wet granulation results.

BASFs rich portfolio of instant and modified release solutions offers an unprecedented range of functionality.

The perfect solution for every skincare challenge.
