SheffCoat Pro HPMC Based Coating Platform SheffCoat Pro is a low viscosity HPMC film coating that provides increased processing efficiency, elasticity and adhesion over traditional HPMC systems. It can be sprayed at a significantly lower temperature than PVA and HPMC allowing for increased energy savings and making it ideal for heat sensitive APIs. SheffCoat Pro is an ideal high efficiency coating when PVA based coatings cannot be used due to regulatory requirements, process temperature, or plasticizer considerations. Applied at 25% solids (up to twice as fast as traditional HPMC systems) Utilizes VLV a low viscosity HPMC without the brittle characteristics of E3. SheffCoat VLV Pro Low Dow viscosity VLV HPMC Adhesive and elastic coating with good appearance and excellent logo definition Considered a trouble shooting coating Sprayable at lower temperatures allowing for increased energy savings and ideal for heat sensitive APIs SheffCoat 11
SheffCoat HS HPMC Based Coating Platform with Increased Film Elasticity and Adhesion Some tablets have softer cores and may need a very durable coating with increased adhesion in order to ensure the tablet core does not erode during the coating process. There are also certain APIs that are extremely sensitive to moisture. The addition of HPC provides improved film characteristics to overcome these issues. SheffCoat HPMC base HPC adds film elasticity and adhesion HPC may also increase viscosity at higher usage rates, slightly lowering solids content of spray suspension increase film elasticity increase adhesion to core SheffCoat HS (High Strength) HPMC + HPC (Hydroxypropyl cellulose) SheffCoat 12
SheffCoat PlusC Systems HPMC Based Coating Platform with Improved Processing Efficiency and Less Cost The need for higher than 15% solids spray suspension is desired when faster processing times are needed because the tablets cannot have prolonged exposure to heat and moisture.the addition of a carbohydrate provides the increased processing efficiency without using PVA. SheffCoat HPMC base replace some HPMC with less viscous material, to enable faster coating with higher solids increase sprayability to 18-2% carbohydrates are widely used /widely approved excellent logo definition SheffCoat L (Lactose) HPMC + lactose SheffCoat D (polydextose) HPMC + Polydextrose Creates adequate film and is low cost alternative to HPMC Excellent logo definition SheffCoat S (Starch) HPMC + Starch SheffCoat 13
SheffCoat MP HPMC Based Coating Platform with Improved Processing Efficiency and Film It is possible to increase processing efficiency of a basic HPMC formulation while maintaining film strength and adhesion.instead of replacing HPMC with a carbohydrate, a high performing film forming polymer such as PVA is used in combination. SheffCoat HPMC base increase processing efficiency increase moisture protection SheffCoat MP (Mixed Polymer) HPMC + PVA Provides the benefits of HPMC while providing higher solid and better elasticity Ability to coat at lower temperatures than PVA PVA allows for higher solids in spray suspension faster processing times PVA provides increased elasticity over HPMC SheffCoat High Pigment Systems HPMC Based Coating Platform with Increase Pigment Loading Increasing the levels of pigment in the formulation provides greater efficiency while maintaining the the film performance. SheffCoat HPMC base decrease in material used less coating time less exposure to heat and moisture SheffCoat SheffCoat HP (High Pigment HP Systems) HPMC Polymer + + additional pigment An increase in pigment load translates to theoretical 1/3 decrease in coating weight gain and processing time to achieve same visual effect Suitable for most tablet cores Elasticity and adhesion is maintained SheffCoat 14
