Co-processed excipients may enhance functionality and reduce drawbacks of traditional excipients for the manufacture of tablets on a commercial scale. The following study aimed to characterize a range of co-processed excipients that may prove suitable for dispersible tablet formulations prepared by…

Modeling of structural and mechanical tablet properties consisting of multiple components, based on a minimum of experimental data is of high interest, in order to minimize time- and cost-intensive experimental trials in the development of new tablet formulations. The majority of commonly available…
