Asahi Kasei CP-203 Microcrystalline Cellulose Pellet Core

Asahi Kasei CP-203 is a high-purity microcrystalline cellulose pellet core from the CP Series, engineered for direct compression in pharmaceutical tablet manufacturing. It offers excellent flowability, compressibility, and low dust generation. Widely used as an inert excipient, CP-203 ensures consistent tablet weight, hardness, and disintegration. Complies with USP/NF, EP, and JP monographs. Ideal for high-speed rotary presses and sensitive APIs requiring low moisture content and superior batch-to-batch uniformity.

Features Of Asahi Kasei CP-203 Microcrystalline Cellulose Pellet Core

  1. Highly spherical, free-flowing pellets optimized for direct compression and high-speed capsule filling.

  2. Consistent particle size distribution (D50 ≈ 350–450 µm) ensuring uniform die filling and tablet weight control.

  3. Low moisture content (< 5.0%) enhancing stability of moisture-sensitive active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

  4. Excellent compressibility with low ejection forces, enabling robust tablet formation at reduced punch pressures.

  5. Pharmaceutical-grade purity compliant with USP/NF, EP, and JP monographs for Microcrystalline Cellulose.

Typical Applications Of Asahi Kasei CP-203 Microcrystalline Cellulose Pellet Core

  1. Core material for layered or coated extended-release oral solid dosage forms.

  2. Direct compression excipient in immediate-release tablets requiring high density and flowability.

  3. Base pellet for fluid-bed coating processes in multiparticulate drug delivery systems.

  4. Carrier matrix for low-dose potent APIs in high-precision capsule formulations.
