Hygienically processed

Micro Crystalline Cellulose is a mechanically disintegrated level of D.P. Cellulose. It comprises purified, de-polymerised, Micro Crystalline sub micron size colloidal particles. It is produced by treating Alfa Cellulose obtained as a pulp from fibrous plants with minerals acid.

It is a white, odourless, tasteless, extra free flowing powder which is relatively free from organic and non-organic contaminants. It is metabolically inert, and has excellent water absorptive, swelling & dispersion properties, is insoluble in water, dilute acid, common organic solvents and oils. It is partially soluble in dilute alkali.

Pharmaceutical-Grade Purity

Our Microcrystalline Cellulose contains an outstanding 99% purity level, ensuring optimal performance in medicinal and industrial applications. The high purity supports strict regulatory requirements and makes it a reliable choice for pharmaceutical formulations. This grade minimizes the risk of contamination and guarantees safe, consistent results in every batch.

Ideal for Formulating Tablets & Capsules

The granular form of Microcrystalline Cellulose is specifically designed for easy blending and efficient binding in tablet and capsule manufacturing. Its superior compressibility improves the quality of finished products by ensuring uniformity, strength, and proper disintegration, which are essential traits for pharmaceutical dosage forms.

Reliable Indian Manufacturing and Supply

With its origins in India, this Microcrystalline Cellulose is produced under strict quality controls by experienced manufacturers. As a trusted exporter, supplier, and trader, we ensure timely delivery and competitive pricing, serving clients across the globe with consistency and professionalism.

FAQs of Microcrystalline Cellulose:

Q: How is Microcrystalline Cellulose typically used in pharmaceutical manufacturing?
