Hydrophilic Matrix Tablets Inert Matrix Tablets Osmotics Ion Exchange Resins Solubility Enhancement

METHOCEL™ Premium CR

Polymers for Controlled Release

First choice for the formulation of hydrophilic matrix systems, providing a robust mechanism for the extended/controlled release of drugs from oral solid dosage forms.

ETHOCEL™

Polymers for Controlled Release

ETHOCEL™ products are water-insoluble polymers approved for global pharmaceutical applications and used in extended release solid dosage formulations.

AFFINISOL™ Solubility Enhancing Polymers

Polymers for Controlled Release

AFFINISOL™ polymers are uniquely tailored to address the solubilization requirement of poorly soluble APIs.

METHOCEL™ Premium DC2

Polymers for Controlled Release

METHOCEL™ DC2 polymers enable manufacturers to replace costly wet granulation in matrix tablet production with cost effective dry granulation and direct compression techniques.

POLYOX™

Polymers for Controlled Release

POLYOX™ Water-Soluble Resins (NF grades) are non-ionic poly (ethylene oxide) polymers. They are hydrophilic polymers available in a wide range of molecular weights with a history of successful use in extended release applications, including osmotic pump technologies.
