Hot-Melt Extrusion Technique: A Review
Authors
Abstract:
Hot-melt extrusion is one of the most widely applied processing technologies in the plastic, rubber and food industry. Today this technology has found its place in the array of pharmaceutical manufacturing operations. Melt extrusion process are currently applied in the pharmaceutical field for the manufacture of a variety of dosage forms and formulations such as granules, pellets, tablets, suppositories, implants, stents, transdermal systems and ophthalmic inserts. This review article in detail describes the melt extrusion equipment and process. Industrial application of this process along with specific areas on pharmaceutical industry is illustrated. This article concludes with the overview of published examples of the melt extrusion process.

full textA Review of Hot Melt Extrusion Technique
Hot Melt Extrusion (HME) is well known process for the Plastic Industries but it is well accepted by the pharmaceutical industries for the last three decays. With the use of HME we can increase solubility and bio-availability of the API. HME has proven to be a robust method of producing numerous drug delivery systems like modified, controlled and targeted drug delivery systems.HME is a solvent ...

Various approaches have been adopted to address this including preparation of solid dispersions and solid solutions. Hot-melt extrusion is an efficient technology for producing solid molecular dispersions with considerable advantages over solvent-based processes such as spray drying and co-precipitation. Hot-melt extrusion has been demonstrated to provide sustained, modified, and targeted drug ...
full textA Review of Dynamic Models of Hot-Melt Extrusion
Hot-melt extrusion is commonly applied for forming products, ranging from metals to plastics, rubber and clay composites. It is also increasingly used for the production of pharmaceuticals, such as granules, pellets and tablets. In this context, mathematical modeling plays an important role to determine the best process operating conditions, but also to possibly develop software sensors or cont...
full textEnhancement of dissolution rate and bioavailability of Paliperidone by Hot Melt Extrusion technique
The purpose of the study was to increase the dissolution and bioavailability of BCS class II drug, paliperidone by amorphization. The technique that was evaluated for preparing amorphous paliperidone (PAL) was Hot Melt Extrusion (HME). In case of hot melt extrusion process, copovidone was used essentially as a hydrophilic polymer with plasticizers like PEG (6000 and 20000), stearic acid and cet...
