In this one-hour session, you’ll learn how advanced film coating systems:
Traditional film coating systems contain HPMC and PVA polymers. However, their inherent high viscosity limits the overall output of coated tablets and becomes a bottleneck in the manufacturing process. Join us to learn how a high-productivity (up to 35% solids) aqueous film coating system can be used to coat in one-third of the processing time of traditional coatings while maintaining excellent product aesthetics and achieving similar productivity gains in a batch or continuous coater.
Register for the webinar replay today to learn how to reduce processing time and overall costs while increasing your plant’s coating capacity.
