Plasticizers for Nutraceuticals

Plasticizers for nutraceuticals are crucial excipients that provide flexibility and effectiveness to the solid forms of supplements, such as tablets and capsules. Their main function is to optimize manufacturability and enhance the consumer experience by facilitating ingestion. 

Improved Flexibility: They bring flexibility to solid forms, facilitating compression and reducing tablet fragility. 

Manufacturing Enhancement: They facilitate manufacturability by improving mix homogeneity and compression capability. 

Adaptability to Active Ingredients: They are compatible with a variety of active ingredients, ensuring formulation stability. 

Reduction of Tool Wear: They minimize manufacturing tool wear, prolonging tool life. 

Palatability Enhancement: They contribute to palatability by facilitating disintegration and dissolution in the gastrointestinal tract. 

Uniform Release: They promote uniform release of active ingredients during digestion. 

Absorption Optimization: They enhance nutrient absorption by facilitating disintegration in the digestive system. 

Multivitamin Tablets: Applied in the production of multivitamin tablets to enhance compression and uniformity. 

Mineral Supplements: Used in supplements containing minerals to optimize manufacturability. 

Nutritional Capsules: Incorporated into capsules to ensure proper release and smooth ingestion experience. 

Digestive Products: Applied in formulations intended for digestive health to facilitate disintegration. 

Nutritional Supplements: Generally used in the manufacturing of nutritional supplements to improve final product quality. 

Compression Facilitation: They improve the compression of solid forms, ensuring high-quality tablets. 

Increased Malleability: They confer malleability, reducing fragility and improving tablet strength. 

Tool Wear Minimization: They help minimize tool wear, reducing production costs. 

Consumer Experience Enhancement: They facilitate ingestion by increasing palatability and facilitating disintegration. 

Contribution to Uniformity: They promote uniformity in nutrient release, optimizing absorption.
