    Technical Data Sheet

    Coating Application

    Coating Tablets with Sureteric

    Sureteric is a specially blended combination of PVAP (polyvinyl acetate phthalate), plasticizers, and other processing
    ingredients, specifically designed to meet the enteric coating needs of solid oral dosage forms in the pharmaceutical industry

    1) Maximize pan charge


    2) Air volume may be decreased to prevent edge chipping
    3) Adjust to maximize efficiency
    Additional Considerations

    1. Always maintain a negative air pressure in the pan (more air out than in).

    2. Rotate (jog) the table and bed minimally prior to constant rotation, during the spray cycle.

    3. After start-up, allow a minimum of 15 minutes for exhaust temperature to equilibrate before making changes
    in fluid and/or air flows.

    4. To maximize enteric performance and adhesion between the sub-coat and enteric interface, reduce the
    Sureteric spray rate by 15%, for the first 1% weight gain, if any tackiness or sticking is noticed. The delivery
    rate may then be increased as the cores become sealed with Sureteric.

    5. Once Sureteric delivery has begun, maintain a constant flow. Gun needles should remain in an open
    position for the duration of the Sureteric application.

    6. Immediately after applying the topcoat, tablets may be polished using powdered Carnauba wax. Apply no
    more than 10.0 g per 100 kg of tablets. Apply the wax without exhaust or drying air on the tablets. Run for
    5 minutes at 3 rpm, then cool to room temperature with exhaust at low speed for no longer than 5 minutes.

    The above parameters are recommended based on Colorcon trial data. Individual product and machine functions
    may create a need to alter the conditions. Please consult Colorcon if further technical advice is required.
