Tablettose® 100
The product Tablettose® is manufactured by a continous spray agglomeration process, where water is used as the binder and is sprayed onto fluidized fine milled lactose particles, creating liquid bridges to form agglomerated lactose.
Tablettose®, especially designed for Direct-Compression, combines the flowability of coarse lactose crystals and the good compressibility of fine milled lactose.
Tablettose® 100 is produced from a smaller starting particle size than the material used for Tablettose® 80 and Tablettose® 70. As a result, Tablettose® 100 has a higher dilution potential compared to Tablettose® 70 and Tablettose® 80 due to increased compactability.
