Characterization of the viscoelasticity of pharmaceutical tablets using impulse excitation technique
Pharmaceutical tablets can be produced on different kinds of presses that may have very different compaction kinematics. Strain rate sensitivity (SRS) is thus an important property for the powders used to produce pharmaceutical tablets. Viscoelasticity is one of the aspects of the SRS and can be…
