Microcrystalline Cellulose 102 NF (Fine)
Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) is a purified, partly depolymerized cellulose with shorter, crystalline polymer chains. Its strong binding performance makes MCC one of the most commonly used excipients in drug formulations, serving as a diluent, filler, and binder. The product is manufactured through controlled partial hydrolysis of high-purity wood pulp, followed by purification and drying. MCC is suitable for diverse pharmaceutical processes, including wet granulation, dry granulation, and direct compression.

Sorbitol Powder, FCC/USP/NF
Sorbitol, also known as glucitol, is a sugar alcohol that the human body metabolizes slowly. It is commonly used as a sugar substitute in diet drinks, ice cream, mints, cough syrups, and sugar-free chewing gum. Sorbitol is a nutritive sweetener, providing 2.6 food calories per gram compared to 4 calories for typical carbohydrates. In cosmetics, sorbitol serves as a sweetener, thickener, humectant, and conditioning agent, preventing moisture loss from the skin and hair.
