Product Details

Microcrystalline Cellulose PH-105 (MCC PH-105) is an ultra-fine grade of microcrystalline cellulose developed for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical formulations requiring fine particle characteristics and reliable compression performance. With a typical median particle size of approximately 15–20 μm, it offers a fine powder structure that supports tablet compaction and contributes to a smooth texture in suitable formulations.

As a multifunctional excipient, MCC PH-105 can serve as a filler, diluent, and binder in oral solid dosage forms. Its fine particle size makes it particularly suitable for evaluating in chewable tablets, lozenges, and selected orally disintegrating formulations where texture and mouthfeel are important considerations.

MCC PH-105 can also be considered for dietary supplement tablets and other suitable solid dosage products. The appropriate application and processing method depend on the overall formulation, manufacturing conditions, and desired finished-product characteristics.
