Guides
Resources
The things that go wrong in a coating pan, and the chemistry underneath the grades. Written for the people running the batch.
Reference and documents
Tablet coating glossary
Weight build-up, bed temperature, seal coat, opacifier, disintegration time and the rest of the vocabulary a coating conversation runs on.
28 termsTablet coating defects and what causes them
Logo bridging, picking, orange peel, colour variation, loss of gastro resistance and the two failures that only show on stability.
7 defectsThe polymers behind a coating system
Methacrylic, CAP, phthalate, HPMC and PVA. What each one does, and which of our grades is built on it.
5 polymersApplication notes
Coating a specific active start to finish. What the core does, which grades handle it, the order they go on in, and the failure to expect.
1 noteTechnical insights
Why the parameters are what they are, what breaks at scale, and how a coating decision shows up later in a stability pull.
1 articleTechnical documents
Technical data sheets, safety data sheets, certificates of analysis and regulatory packs, and how to request each.
