NISSO HPC (Hydroxypropyl Cellulose) was first sold in Japan in 1969 and is globally approved for use as a pharmaceutical and nutraceutical excipient and as a binder for granulation, direct compression, and as a solubility enhancement matrix. NISSO HPC has been fully IPEC GMP compliant since 2010.
NISSO SSF (Sodium Stearyl Fumarate) is a lubricant (pharmaceutical additive) in the production of tablets. It is primarily used in tableting and dry granulation as a means of preventing tablet failure. The presence of hydrophilic groups in the molecule improves the disintegration time of the tablets, making it suitable for use in orally disintegrating (OD) tablets. Using NISSO SSF as a lubricant can suppress the effects of over-mixing tableting powders and improving the tablets physical properties, making it suitable for the continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing that has been gaining attention in recent years.
Nippon Soda/NISSO provides Japanese high-quality and highly functional excipients.
