Knowledge Base

Over the past couple of years I have worked with a huge number of chemical engineering teams, trying to crack the optimum base for a catalyst pellet. After hours of trials and research, I am pleased to say, we’ve done it!

It is well established and understood that one of the most important factors in the development of a formulation for both tableting and making pellets by extrusion and spheronization is the amount of liquid binder added to the formulation. What is less widely acknowledged is the importance of mixing and the mixing regime used.
