CROSCARMELLOSE SODIUM

CCS is an internally cross-linked polymer of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and at Accent is available as Acrocell. Possessing the nature of being cross-linked, it is insoluble, hydrophilic and highly absorbent. Being uniquely fibrous, it holds remarkable water wicking capabilities. CCS improves bioavailability of formulations through Visit link : its drug dissolution and disintegration attributes. E468 cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose acts as a food emulsifier. APPLICATION OF CCS • Rapid disintegrator in pharmaceutical formulations for tablets, capsules and granules • CCS effectively combines with insoluble and filler binders such as MCC and DCP • It is preferable for non-starch base formulation products • CCS being a rapid disintegrator, tablet dissolution can be easily achieved • Efficient for low use of levels • CCS works well for insensate hardness of tablets & finer dissolution stability for a long term • Used in solid-dosage forms, vitamins and other nutrition
