- What are sorbitan sorbitol special ® plasticizers?
- Sorbitol Special ® plasticizers are sorbitan-sorbitol based soft gel plasticizers. They enhance the capsule finish gloss for a premium appearance, help to prevent leakage, provide consistent pharmaceutical quality, and extend shelf life by maintaining a proper moisture balance within the capsule shell.
- Can sorbitol be used as a plasticizer?
- Among the two plasticizers, sorbitol at a concentration of 50% was found to have the highest solubility water. Therefore, this formulation could be used as a film for edible candy wrappers, since they easily dissolve and melt in the mouth. Another application could be as a coating for fresh fruits and vegetables.
- Does sorbitol plasticize gelatin?
- Sorbitol, on the other hand, is considered an indirect plasticizer, and other components of commercial sorbitol – sorbitan solutions might not have any plasticizing effect. A new experimental sorbitol-sorbitan solution (POLYSORB® 2.0, Roquette Frères, France), with an optimized composition, was tested for its capacity to plasticize gelatin.
- Why do you need a special plasticizer for a soft capsule?
- The formation of a soft capsule requires the use of a non-volatile plasticizer in addition to water to guarantee the mechanical stability. Sorbitol Special plasticizers are engineered to counter balance the stresses during processing and drying. SPI Pharma has the products and expertise to make a difference in your soft gel.
- Are glycerol and sorbitol the same plasticizer?
- Two different plasticizers - Glycerol and Sorbitol - have been utilized separately and in a 1:1 combination.
- What are softgel capsules?
- The use of softgel capsules is increasing across a wide range of applications including prescription medicines, consumer health, vitamins, and mineral supplements. One of the key components of the softgel capsule is the plasticizer used to make the shell elastic and pliable and to minimize brittleness and cracking.
