Klucel™ Hydroxypropylcellulose from Ashland Inc.

Description

Klucel™ hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) is a nonionic water-soluble cellulose ether with a remarkable combination of properties. It combines organic solvent solubility, thermoplasticity and surface activity with the aqueous thickening and stabilizing properties characteristic of other water-soluble cellulose polymers available from Ashland. Klucel™ HPC films are flexible without plasticizers and non-tacky at high humidity.

Klucel™ EXF Ultra HPC is an ultra-fine tablet binder that assures formulation predictability, reliability and robustness. Klucel™ EXF Ultra HPC provides enhanced tablet strength and low friability with the most difficult to compress active pharmaceutical ingredients even at low usage levels.
