Polyplasdone™ crospovidone superdisintegrants are synthetic, insoluble, but rapidly swellable, crosslinked homopolymers of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone. Polyplasdone™ crospovidone particles are granular and porous compared with other superdisintegrants. The high surface area combined with unique chemistry results in high interfacial activity that enhances the dissolution of poorly water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in a way that is not possible with other disintegrant technologies.

features and benefits
  • provides rapid disintegration in wet and dry granulation and direct compression tablet processes
  • combines multiple mechanisms to achieve disintegration at low use levels (2-5 wt%)
  • swells without forming gels that can slow tablet disintegration or dissolution
  • increases tablet breaking force and reduces friability
  • enhances the dissolution of poorly soluble drugs
  • available in Type A and Type B crospovidone grades
  • polyplasdone™ ultra and ultra-10 grades provide the same great performance with very low peroxide levels

applications
  • disintegration
  • drug solubilization
  • suspending agent
