TABLET GRANULATION: CURRENT SCENARIO AND RECENT ADVANCES
Journal Title: Universal Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 5
Abstract
Granulation is a size enlargement process, in fine or coarse particles converted into physically stronger and larger agglomerates having good flow property, better compression characteristics and uniformity, prevent segregation of the blend components, improve content uniformity, and eliminate excessive amounts of fine particles. Size of granules has a size range of 0.2 to 4.0 mm, depending on their subsequent use. Size of the granules depends on the quantity and feeding rate of granulating liquid. The selection of process to prepare granules requires thorough knowledge of physicochemical properties of the drug, excipients, required flow and release properties, to name a few. At current scenario available technologies includes, spray drying, roller compaction, high shear mixing, and fluid bed granulation etc. The objective of present work is to focus on the commonly used and novel granulation technologies like such as pneumatic dry granulation, steam granulation, moisture-activated dry granulation, thermal adhesion granulation, freeze granulation, and foamed binder or foam granulation.
