A dry moisture barrier film coating composition for forming a moisture barrier film coating for pharmaceutical tablets and the like comprises polyvinyl alcohol, soya lecithin, and optionally a flow aid, a colorant, and/or a suspending agent. A liquid coating solution or dispersion for forming a moisture barrier film coating for pharmaceutical tablets and the like comprises polyvinyl alcohol, soya lecithin, water, and optionally a flow aid, a colorant, and/or a suspending agent. A method of coating pharmaceutical tablets and the like with a moisture barrier film coating comprises forming a liquid coating solution or dispersion for forming a moisture barrier film coating for pharmaceutical tablets and the like comprising polyvinyl alcohol, soya lecithin, water, and optionally a flow aid, a colorant, and/or a suspending agent, applying the coating solution or dispersion onto the tablets to form a film coating on the tablets, and drying the film coating on the tablets.

Moisture barrier film coating composition, method and coated form

A dry film coating composition for use in coating pharmaceutical tablets, nutritional supplements, food, confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like, comprises polyvinyl alcohol, a plasticizer such as polyethylene glycol or glycerin, talc, and preferably a pigment/opacifier and lecithin. A method of coating substrates such as pharmaceutical tablets, nutritional supplements, food, confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like, with a film coating, comprises the steps of mixing polyvinyl alcohol, a plasticizer such as polyethylene glycol or glycerin, talc, and preferably a pigment/opacifier and lecithin into water to form an aqueous coating dispersion, applying an effective amount of said coating dispersion onto said substrates to form a film coating on said substrates, and drying the film coating on said substrates.

Moisture barrier film coating composition, method, and coated form

A dry film coating composition for use in coating pharmaceuticals, food, confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like, comprises a cellulosic polymer, and lactose. The composition may include an optional plasticizer, and an optional pigment. A method of coating substrates such as pharmaceutical tablets, food and confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like comprises mixing a cellulosic polymer and lactose into water to form an aqueous coating suspension, spraying the coating suspension onto said substrates to form a film coating on said substrates, and drying the film coating on said substrates. Optionally, a plasticizer and/or pigment may be dispersed into the aqueous coating suspension. The method of making a dry film coating composition for use in coating pharmaceutical tablets, food and confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like, comprises mixing a cellulosic polymer and lactose together to form a dry film coating composition. Optionally, a plasticizer and/or pigment is blended with the cellulosic polymer and lactose. A method of making a dry film coating composition for use in coating pharmaceutical tablets, food and confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like comprises mixing a cellulosic polymer and lactose into water to form an aqueous coating suspension, and spray granulating the aqueous coating suspension to form a dry film coating compositions. Optionally, a plasticizer and/or pigment may be mixed into the aqueous coating suspension. An aqueous coating suspension for coating substrates such as pharmaceutical tablets, food and confectionery forms, agricultural seeds, and the like, comprises a mixture of a cellulosic polymer, lactose, water, and optionally, plasticizer and/or pigment.
