PRODUCT
BENEFITS
A
few of these amazing properties are :
- Diverse
Applications
- High temperature
does not change products.
- Better
rheological properties
- Leaves
no resident chalky, drying effect.
- No phase
separation for shelf-life of product.
- Helps mask
unpleasant drug or oily tastes.
- Thixotropy
evident with levels as low as 1%.
- Temperature
changes have little effect or no effect on viscosity.
Alfacel-P(CC)
There are four types of Alfacel-P(CC) as mentioned in the above
table. All types are white, odourless and tasteless hygroscopic
powders. They are insoluble in organic solvents and dilute acids,
& partially soluble in both dilute alkali & water (CMC fraction).

DISPERSION
The colloidal MCC provides a structured dispersion vehicle
while the CMC facilitates dispersion and serves as a protective colloid.
When stirred in water Alfacel-P(CC) powder disperses to form either a
colloidal sol or white opaque gel, depending upon the Alfacel-P(CC) concentration.
SUMMARIZING
THE BENEFITS
Alfacel-P(CC) is a versatile, colloidal dispersion vehicle with broad
pharmaceutical applications:
- Suspending agent
- Emulsion stabilizer
- Oil/water emulsifier
- Modifies viscosity
- Possesses thixotropic
properties
- Stable under extreme
temperatures
- Stable over wide
pH
- Long shelf-life
stability
