Pharmaceutical-grade ethyl cellulose meeting USP/NF, EP, and JP monograph requirements.
Consistent batch-to-batch performance with tight control over ethoxy substitution (48.0–49.5%) and viscosity (6–9 mPa·s in 5% toluene/ethanol 80/20).
Free-flowing, off-white to light tan granular powder with low moisture content (<5.0%).
Non-ionic, thermoplastic polymer offering excellent film-forming capability and sustained-release functionality.
Compatible with common pharmaceutical excipients and suitable for hot-melt extrusion and fluid-bed coating processes.
Sustained-release matrix tablets and multiparticulate systems (e.g., pellets, granules).
Functional film coatings for taste masking, moisture barrier, and controlled drug release.
Binders and rheology modifiers in liquid and semi-solid formulations.
Stabilizer in topical suspensions and emulsions requiring non-ionic, water-insoluble polymers.
Carrier material in hot-melt extruded solid dispersions for poorly soluble APIs.
