Microcrystalline Cellulose

Pharmaceutical-grade Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) is a pharmacopoeia-standard pharmaceutical excipient produced through the hydrolysis and purification of refined cotton. Possessing a multifaceted functionality that encompasses filling, binding, and disintegration, it serves as a core excipient in solid dosage forms. The product is available in various particle size specifications; the PH series is primarily utilized in the production of tablets, capsules, and granules. It functions both as a filler—regulating tablet weight and enhancing powder flowability—and as a dry binder, making it ideally suited for direct compression and dry granulation processes. It is particularly compatible with Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) that are prone to decomposition upon contact with water, while simultaneously leveraging its water-absorbing and swelling properties to accelerate tablet disintegration and enhance drug dissolution efficiency. The RC colloidal series is predominantly employed in oral dry suspensions and oral liquid formulations, where it acts to stabilize suspensions and prevent the sedimentation and stratification of active ingredients. Widely applied across the pharmaceutical and health food sectors—including traditional Chinese and Western medicines, tablets, hard capsules, compressed health supplements, and dry suspensions—it exhibits stable physicochemical properties and excellent compatibility, fully complying with both domestic and international pharmacopoeia quality standards.
