COMPARING DEWAXED SHELLAC FLAKES VS. SYNTHETIC POLYMERS FOR SUSTAINED RELEASE TABLETS

R&D teams in the pharmaceutical sector are constantly balancing tablet performance with clean regulatory paths.When building sustained-release profiles, the goal is simple: control the erosion rate of the tablet matrix so theactive ingredient releases steadily over hours. For years, synthetic options like HPMC or ethyl cellulose havedominated the space. But as clean-label initiatives move from
