Fabrication and Characterization of Magnesium Matrix Nanocomposites Reinforced with Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes
Abstract: Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs)-reinforced magnesium nanocomposites were fabricated through powder metallurgy route and then hot extruded as secondary process. CNTs were added by 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt% with magnesium powders and ball milled to obtain a homogeneous mixture. The effect on mechanical properties of Mg nanocomposites due to the reinforcement of MWCNTs was investigated. The effect of mixing through high-energy ball milling, sintering temperature and extrusion process on the …

A Review on: Oral Thin Films: A New Approach to Effective and Easy Drug Delivery
Abstract: Oral Thin Film (OTF) is an advance drug delivery system in which drug is incorporated into dissolvable strip and place in oral cavity for rapid absorption. OTF is useful for patient such as pediatric and geriatric who have difficulty swallowing pills. It provides rapid action, precise dosage and improved bioavailability. OTFs consist of fast-dissolving films, extended-release films, and mucoadhesive films for various therapeutic applications. The manufacturing processes of OTFs such …

Fast Dissolving Oral Thin Films: A Review
Abstract: Fast-dissolving oral thin films (FDOFs) represent a significant advancement in drug delivery technology, offering advantages over traditional solid dosage forms, especially for patients with swallowing difficulties. FDOFs dissolve rapidly in the mouth, releasing the active ingredient without the need for water or chewing. They have picked up ubiquity due to their comfort, taste veiling capabilities, and progressed persistent compliance. Ideal drugs for FDOFs should possess characteristics such as solubility, stability, …

Innovative Approaches in Excipient Co-Processing: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Co-processing of existing excipients is an innovative strategy in pharmaceutical formulation that offers a cost-effective, efficient alternative to the development of entirely new excipients. This process involves combining two or more well-established excipients to create new material with enhanced properties, thereby improving the functionality, performance, and manufacturability of pharmaceutical products. By leveraging the unique characteristics of each excipient, co-processing can significantly enhance attributes, such as flowability, compressibility, solubility, stability, and …

Polymer Composite-Assisted Crystal Engineering for Drug Synthesis and Property Control through Solid Solutions and Co-Crystals
Abstract: The long-standing problem of low aqueous solubility, which affects about 90% of all new drug molecules under development, requires an immediate need for alternative approaches apart from the usual practice of crystallization. Polymer-composite-assisted crystal engineering is a novel technique for overcoming the aforementioned problem. This involves the addition of accepted pharmaceutical polymers, such as HPMC, PVP, PEG, and Eudragit copolymers in a single process, which can promote nucleation, stabilize the …
