Product Overview
Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) PH 102
Olymph Global LLP is an India-based manufacturer and exporter of pharmaceutical excipients, food ingredients, and specialty chemicals, serving domestic and international markets.
Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) PH 102 is a highly purified, partially depolymerized cellulose derived from refined wood pulp or other suitable cellulose sources. It is a widely used pharmaceutical excipient valued for its excellent compressibility, binding properties, flow characteristics, and compatibility with a broad range of active pharmaceutical ingredients.
MCC PH 102 is commonly used in the manufacture of direct-compression tablets, where its combination of good flowability and compactibility helps pharmaceutical manufacturers achieve consistent tablet weight, hardness, and mechanical strength. Compared with finer MCC grades, PH 102 is characterized by a larger particle size and improved flow properties, making it particularly suitable for direct compression and other solid-dose formulations.
Microcrystalline Cellulose can function as a binder, diluent, filler, and compression aid in pharmaceutical formulations. It can also support tablet disintegration by facilitating the uptake and movement of water within the compressed tablet, depending on the formulation and processing conditions.
MCC PH 102 is suitable for a variety of pharmaceutical manufacturing processes, including direct compression and selected wet-granulation applications. Its performance depends on factors such as particle size distribution, moisture content, bulk density, formulation composition, and manufacturing process parameters.
At Olymph Global LLP, we focus on the manufacturing and export of pharmaceutical excipients, supporting pharmaceutical manufacturers, formulation companies, and international buyers with product information, applicable specifications, quality documentation, and export-oriented business coordination.
Our Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) PH 102 is intended for customers seeking a versatile pharmaceutical excipient for solid oral dosage formulations, subject to applicable pharmacopoeial standards and regulatory requirements in the destination market.
