Benecel™ products are high purity, water-souble, nonionic cellulose ethers. Benecel™ hypromellose (hydroxypropyl-methylcellulose or HPMC) is a versatile excipient with a variety of applications. HPMC is the most widely used polymer in hydrophilic matrix systems with widespread use in controlled-release dosage forms. The Benecel™ family of pharmaceutical products, including Benecel™ XR and XRF HPMC, custom grades of Benecel™ HPMC, and Benecel™ DC HPMC, provides a full portfolio to support the controlled release of a broad range of APIs and manufacturing processes.
Benecel™ XR and XRF HPMC grades:
Benecel™ XR and XRF are high-viscosity grades of HPMC with optimized polymer structure and particle morphology for use in matrix controlled-release systems.
Features and Benefits:
- Optimized polymer structure and particle morphology
- Consistent particle size distribution and bulk density
- Enhanced compactibility at high tableting speeds vs standard grades
- Fine particle size grades available (XRF)
