Formulation relevance and technical benefits
A protective wall matrix is used to address light, heat and oxidation sensitivity and poor powder dispersibility; the product remains immediate/non-modified release.
- Protection or sensory management
- improved powder handling
- single-active format
- immediate/non-modified release.
Best-fit applications
capsules, tablets, premixes and functional foods
Formulation and processing guidance
- Use low-shear dry blending where practical and validate release, sensory and stability performance in the final matrix. Avoid processing that damages the protective wall.
- Confirm compatibility with moisture, oxidants, high shear, high temperature and the intended aqueous or dry matrix.
- Confirm process compatibility, uniformity, stability and performance in the final matrix.
