Pharmaceutical & Industrial Coating Materials

Pharmaceutical coating has been an important technique for the manufacture of pills and other medicines, and pharmaceutical coating techniques continue to change and develop as the pharmaceutical industry develops. Modern pharmaceutical coatings are often film-coated tablets, which are made from cellulose derivatives such as hydroxyproply, methylcellulose or other cellulose polymers, such as cellulose ethers, acrylic polymers, and occasionally materials such as polyethylene glycols or polyvinyl alcohol and other waxy materials.
