On the possibility of replacement of calcium carbonate by a high-performance, economically viable filler in polyethylene composites
(Sage, 2021-07-14)
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is frequently added to polyethylene (PE) as a filler to reduce costs. An alternative to CaCO3, calcium fluoride (CaF2) was proposed in this research. PE/CaCO3 and PE/CaF2 composites in a wide ...
Production and testing of the flat faced tablets via overpriting of injection moulded tablet bases
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)
The pharmaceutical industry is exploring the realization of tailored dosage forms for individual patients to provide precision medicine. My supervisors have previously used a hybrid manufacturing technique that overmoulded ...
A novel manufacturing technique for the production of tailored solid dosage forms
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020)
The main objective of this study was to evaluate manufacturing processes for the fabrication of tailored solid dosage forms. Two hot-melt extrusion based manufacturing processes were investigated, a 3D printing process ...
