EMCOCEL®

Microcrystalline Cellulose

Premium Quality Spray Dried Binder

Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is an odorless, tasteless, porous white powder derived from pharmaceutical grade wood pulp. With a wide range of chemical, technical, and economic benefits, MCC is one of the most widely used binder excipients for tablet formulations.

Benefits of Using EMCOCEL®

  • High compactability
  • Robust tablets with low friability
  • High production yields
  • Cost savings due to reduction in dosage levels
  • Compatibility with most APIs (inert)
  • Microcrystalline Cellulose

    Main Application

    EMCOCEL® 50 M

    65

    0.25 – 0.37

    Fine standard MCC grade, especially suited for wet granulation, roller compaction and spheronization. Very high compactibility.

    EMCOCEL® 90 M

    130

    0.25 – 0.37

    Medium size standard MCC grade, suited for the majority of directly compressible actives. Combines good flow and high compactibility.

    EMCOCEL® XLM 90

    130

    0.25 – 0.37

    Same quality to grades 102/90M, but very low moisture content (< 1.5 %) for processing water-sensitive actives.

    EMCOCEL® HD 90

    130

    0.38 – 0.50

    Same quality to grade 102/90M, but increased bulk density and improved flow properties. Especially suited for high speed tableting and processing high density actives.

    EMCOCEL® 90 M COARSE

    170/175

    0.25 – 0.37

    Coarse, DC-grade MCC.

    EMCOCEL® LP 200

    220

    0.20 – 0.37

    Coarse grade MCC, combines good compactibility and high binding capacity with outstanding flow. Provides good content uniformity at low weight variation – even when used with low concentrations of fine actives.
