Tablet Capping And Lamination

Tablet capping and lamination powder compaction is widely used to produce pharmaceutical tablets and is referred to as a tabletting process.

Tablet capping and lamination.

The following are some of the common factors which can cause tablet capping. Better understand the tablet capping lamination phenomenon. Capping or lamination is an unsolved common problem in tablet manufacturing. Although the method is widely used there are still significant challenges with achieving a high quality compact.

First lamination is caused by air being trapped in the tablet especially among the granules or particles. Lamination is whenever tablet is breaking or separating anywhere rather than top if is separating from top it is capping. Abstract air entrapment efficiency of the powders is one of the main factors leading to occurrence of capping or lamination tendency of tablets manufactured from the directly compressible powder blends. Root causes of lamination.

Using acetaminophen containing formulations we examined the potential use of a compaction simulator as a material sparing tool to predict capping occurrence under commercial. Fines are small dust particles which. This challenge can be overcome by doing a pre compression as well as reducing the compression and minimizing the tableting rate. This is the problem faced in the formulation of the granules.
