Formulated to improve process reliability, reduce cycle-times, and fortify functionality for enteric coating applications.
These specialty excipients were developed by Pace formulation scientists to solve unique coating problems for pharmaceutical and dietary supplement products. Our products improve film coating performance, simplify coating operations, and reduce process times and cost.
PlasACRYL® is a 20% emulsion containing anti-tacking and plasticizing components that simplify the preparation of a robust coating suspension. PlasACRYL® is commonly used with acrylic polymer coating systems for tablet and multiparticulate coating applications.
PlasACRYL® is manufactured by Pace Analytical and distributed globally by Evonik Corporation. PlasACRYL® is designed for synergistic use with EUDRAGIT® aqueous-based acrylic polymers.
