The aim of this thesis work was to characterise the physico-mechanical properties of new excipients proposed on the market as 'alternatives' to the conventional excipients commonly used in nutraceuticals for the formulation of solid forms (tablets and capsules), which are distinguished by certain characteristics, such as technology, health properties, functionality and innovation. Excipients and mixtures were subjected to flowability analysis by funnel flowability test, tapped density test, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and powder rheology by shear cell. The results enabled the formulation and compression of stable mixtures with an improved flowability profile.
L’obiettivo di questo lavoro di tesi è stato quello di caratterizzare le proprietà fisico-meccaniche di nuovi eccipienti proposti sul mercato come “alternativi” agli eccipienti convenzionali comunemente utilizzati in ambito nutraceutico per la formulazione di forme solide (compresse e capsule), che si distinguano per determinate caratteristiche, quali tecnologia, proprietà salutistiche, funzionalità e innovazione. Gli eccipienti e le miscele sono stati sottoposti ad analisi della scorrevolezza mediante flowability test con imbuto, test della tapped density, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) e reologia delle polveri mediante shear cell. I risultati ottenuti hanno permesso la formulazione e la compressione di miscele stabili e con un profilo di scorrevolezza migliore.

Abstract
The aim of this thesis work was to characterise the physico-mechanical properties of new excipients proposed on the market as 'alternatives' to the conventional excipients commonly used in nutraceuticals for the formulation of solid forms (tablets and capsules), which are distinguished by certain characteristics, such as technology, health properties, functionality and innovation. Excipients and mixtures were subjected to flowability analysis by funnel flowability test, tapped density test, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and powder rheology by shear cell. The results enabled the formulation and compression of stable mixtures with an improved flowability profile.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
