1. Mass Transport through Phase Separated Films - Effects of Ethyl Cellulose Molecular Weight on Cellulose Derivative Blends for Pharmaceutical Coatings
Abstract : Polymer blends are utilized for a variety of applications, not least in pharmaceutical coatings for controlled release of drugs. For instance, blends of ethyl cellulose (EC) and the water-soluble hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) can be used to coat drug pellets for oral extendedrelease formulations. READ MORE

2. Ethyl Cellulose Membranes used in Modified Release Formulations
Abstract : Ethyl cellulose (EC) is a commonly used polymer in modified drug release formulations. The general aim of the present study was to investigate release mechanisms through non-porous EC membranes with hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) contents ranging from 0 to 30% by weight. READ MORE

3. Cellulose processing in ionic liquid based solvents
Abstract : As the most abundant polymer in nature, cellulose has an undisputed role among the raw materials to be used in a sustainable future. From its native form, in wood or straw, cellulose can be processed into products such as paper and board. READ MORE

4. Structure control by phase separation and influence on mass transport in films for controlled release
Abstract : Controlled release coatings for oral pharmaceutics are often made of cellulose derivatives. Such coatings can be used to promote a prolonged therapeutic concentration in the blood by a slow drug delivery in the gastrointestinal tract. READ MORE

5. Foaming of Some Cellulose Derivatives - Initial Studies
Abstract : Fossil-based polymeric foams, based on polymers such as polystyrene and polyurethane, are important and widely employed materials due to their good mechanical properties relative their low density, the low price and the possibility for large-scale production. There are however a few disadvantages with these foamed products. READ MORE
