by Muby Chem
Muby Chem operates a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility producing Low-Substituted Hydroxypropyl Cellulose known for its exceptional purity and efficacy. This compound is particularly valuable in the pharmaceutical industry.
Our advanced technology harnesses the unique properties of Low-Substituted Hydroxypropyl Cellulose supporting its reliable performance as an emulsifying and stabilizing pharmaceutical excipient.
Application: MOLPROP™ LHPC is primarily used as a disintegrant in solid oral dosage forms, particularly tablets, orally disintegrating tablets and granules. After administration, it absorbs liquid and swells, promoting rapid breakup of the tablet and facilitating the release of the active pharmaceutical ingredient. It can also be incorporated during wet or dry granulation and direct-compression processes, where its binding and compression properties can contribute to tablet strength, powder handling, and manufacturing consistency.
