  • TWIN-SCREW DRY GRANULATION FOR PRODUCING SOLID FORMULATIONS
    Publication number: 20230165799
    Abstract: A dry granulation process using a twin-screw extruder for granulating a powder mixture which includes at least one active ingredient and at least one carrier. The process includes steps of kneading the powder mixture in the screw barrel of the twin-screw extruder at a barrel temperature below a melting point of the at least one active ingredient and a melting point or a glass transition temperature of the at least one carrier to provide a kneaded powder mixture, and extruding the kneaded powder mixture to form granules. Granules and tablets produced using the dry granulation process in the twin-screw extruder are also provided.
    Type: Application
    Filed: December 5, 2022
    Publication date: June 1, 2023
    Applicants: R.P. Scherer Technologies, LLC, UNIVERSITY OF MISSISSIPPI
