Booknews

A new edition of the reference presenting a thorough analysis of the most recent advances in aqueous-based polymeric coatings used internationally. The 16 collected papers offer new information on biodegradable and silicone-based elastomer dispersions, the physical and mechanical properties of polymeric films, process and formulation variables influencing surface properties of film-coated substrates, the chemistry and applications of cellulosic polymers for enteric coatings and latex and pseudolatex dispersions, and equipment for adapting polymers to pharmaceutical dosage forms. Includes graphs and tables. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

Booknews

Reviews the physical and chemical properties of several commercially available aqueous-based coatings for pills, and the equipment and techniques for applying them. Addresses such topics as removal of water, air handling operation, temperature control, spray rate, stability of the coating solution, drug stability within the coating, and equipment settings. Aimed at large industrial drug suppliers (but perhaps useful for some small, free-lance basement operations as well). Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
