Colloidal cellulose

Shotton et al. [38] Van Kamp et al. [39] Sulfadiazine (D) Povidone (B) No filler Prednisone (D) Maize starch Na calcium alginate Alginic acid Microcrystalline cellulose Colloidal aluminum silicate Extra > intra Extragranular incorporation yielded fastest disintegration, but intragranular incorporation yielded finer particles. Equal distribution of disintegrants is recommended. 

Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is obtained by a controlled acid treatment intended to destroy the molecular bonding in the amorphous zones of cellulose. Usually HC1 or H2SO4 are used at 110°C for 15 min over native cellulose or regenerated cellulose. Colloidal gels are thus obtained showing thixotropy. MCC is used in the preparation of pharmaceutical compressed tablets due to its binding and disintegration properties.

Interest in the field of polymer chemistry became so intense that a High Polymer Forimi, similar to our present symposium system, was established. The wide range of interest in the polymer field was evidenced by the several divisions sponsoring the Forum Paint, Varnish and Plastics Physical, Inorganic Rubber Chemistry Cellulose Colloid Organic and Petroleum. From 19 6 to 19 9 1 2 papers were presented at 27 sessions of The High Polymer Forum.
