The efficacy and manufacturability of pharmaceutical tablets are significantly influenced by the excipients used, and Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) stands out as a premier choice. Understanding the various grades of MCC available and their specific properties is crucial for optimizing tablet formulations. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. provides a range of high-quality MCC grades to meet diverse formulation needs.

MCC grades are typically differentiated by their particle size, density, and moisture content, which directly impact their performance as binders, fillers, and disintegrants. For instance, finer particle size MCCs often exhibit better compressibility and can lead to tablets with higher tensile strength, while coarser grades might offer improved flowability. When you buy microcrystalline cellulose, considering these distinctions is key to achieving the desired tablet characteristics.

The role of MCC as a microcrystalline cellulose binder is particularly vital in direct compression. Grades like MCC 101, known for its fine particle size and excellent compressibility, are ideal for formulations requiring high tablet hardness. MCC 102, with a slightly larger particle size, offers improved flow properties, making it suitable for high-speed tableting. For manufacturers focusing on moisture-sensitive APIs, low-moisture grades of MCC are available to prevent degradation.

As a microcrystalline cellulose disintegrant, MCC's hydrophilic nature allows it to absorb water rapidly, promoting tablet swelling and breakup. This is essential for ensuring that the active pharmaceutical ingredient is released promptly in the body for absorption. The selection of an appropriate MCC grade can significantly influence the disintegration time and, consequently, the bioavailability of the drug.
