EMCOMPRESS® Calcium Phosphates are water-insoluble functional fillers for wet granulation and direct compression applications. EMCOMPRESS® offers improved flow for all powder mixtures, including poorly flowing APIs and plant extracts.
 
EMCOMPRESS® is available in two different grades:
Anhydrous Calcium Hydrogen Phosphate (DCP anhydrous)
Calcium Hydrogen Phosphate Dihydrate (DCP dihydrate)
 
BENEFITS
Direct compression grades act as flow enhancers in powder mixtures
Enables the production of very dense and small tablets
Boosts tablet robustness by synergistic effects with microcrystalline cellulose
Less sensitive towards lubricants compared to plastically deforming materials
Performs well in combination with a wide variety of APIs including sticky herbal extracts
Perfectly suited for high-speed tableting due to low strain rate sensitivity
Inorganic – no risk of BSE/TSE contamination and free of allergens
High chemical stability, especially for anhydrous grades
Premium grade is fully food compliant
High supply security due to multiple production sites
