Polymers to resolve coating challenges

Coating Polymer Products

Coating polymers are suitable for a variety of oral formulation challenges.

Ranging from moisture protection to sustained release, Kollicoat® polymers can also be used for taste masking to improve patient compliance. While these excipients are predominantly used for oral applications, coating polymers can also be utilized for the development of topical films and transdermal patches as film and matrix formers, respectively. The Kollicoat® family of coating polymers consists of a broad range of chemistries to address various film coating challenges.
