Nutraceuticals

Multiple actives can cause complications in the blend leading to segregation and flow problems, which will result in capping, lamination and sticking. 

Merlin can characterise the compactibility of your formulations to assess what problems may be encountered during manufacture. By changing the experimental design, punch profile, compression speed, tooling etc. it is possible to build up a picture of the likely risks to development e.g.: poor strength, high ejection forces, sticking, lamination potential and capping.
