Kollicoat MAE 100 P is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a film-coating agent for tablets and pellets. It provides excellent moisture protection, ensuring the stability of moisture-sensitive active ingredients. The polymer is also utilized in controlled-release formulations, where it acts as a pH-dependent enteric coating, preventing drug release in the acidic environment of the stomach and enabling release in the higher pH of the intestines. Additionally, it enhances the appearance and swallowability of oral dosage forms. Its water-based nature makes it environmentally friendly and suitable for use in processes that avoid organic solvents.
