Abstract
Provided is low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose from which a granulation product having an adequate particle size can be obtained in a wet granulation method and a tablet having excellent compactibility and disintegrability can be obtained. More specifically, provided is low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose having a hydroxypropoxyl content of from 5 to 16% by weight and a water-soluble content of less than 2% by weight, wherein a weight ratio of water to the low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose giving a maximum torque is from 3 to 5 as determined while adding one part by weight of water per minute to one part by weight of the low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose under mixing with biaxial mixing blades. Also provided are a solid preparation including the low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose, and the like.
