Process temperature range of common API's and excipients

Powders – Particle sizes of 5μm to 200μm can be achieved for tablet pressing or compression molding.

Pellets – A wide range of pellet sizes can be achieved including micro-pellets (0.029”-0.047”/0.5mm-1.2mm) and traditional pellets (0.059”-0.118”/1.5mm-3.0mm) for capsule filling, implantable doses, or post processing structural parts.

Fiber – Monofilament fibers are available with diameters ranging from 0.012”-0.028” (0.30mm-0.7mm) for sutures, woven structures and more. Tensile properties depend upon the material type and application requirements.

Film – Film sizes range from 1.969”-3.937” (50mm-100mm) wide with thickness of 0.0012” – 0.0394” (0.03mm-1.00mm) for transdermal patches, bucal patches, implantable wraps and more.

Catheters & Tubes – Implantable tubes can be made to meet specific application requirements. Single lumen, single materials are most common for implants with diameters as small as 0.0098” (0.25mm) with wall thicknesses as small as 0.0004” (0.01mm).
