Crospovidone Va 64 25086-89-9
Product Description
Crospovidone Va 64 (CAS 25086-89-9) is a crosslinked copolymer of vinylpyrrolidone and vinyl acetate in a 60:40 ratio. A pharmacopeial superdisintegrant meeting USP and Ph.Eur standards, it enables rapid tablet disintegration through capillary swelling. Its particle size distribution is such that 90% of particles are smaller than 100μm.
It shows excellent compatibility with both excipients and active ingredients. Solid dosage forms containing this PVPP disintegrant can be produced using common tablet manufacturing techniques, including direct compression, spray drying, and wet granulation.
In terms of compressibility and adhesion, crospovidone NF boasts strong flow properties and plastic deformation, giving it excellent adhesive qualities. This translates to good compressibility in processes like spray drying and wet granulation. When added to tablets, unlike commonly used starches, cellulose preparations, or pectin compounds, it doesn't compromise tablet hardness or abrasion resistance, nor does it increase capping. It also works effectively as a disintegrant in direct compression-no lubricants or additional binders are needed.
Research highlights its high capillary activity and hydration capacity, thanks to a large specific surface area (average 1.25 m²/g) and significant water absorption (high and rapid, reaching 60% or more).
Its strong capillary activity allows it to quickly draw water into tablets. The swelling pressure generated exceeds the tablet's strength, causing immediate disintegration. Folded molecular chains between crosslinks stretch rapidly when water or aqueous solutions penetrate, forcing separation. This swelling leads to a nearly doubled volume within 5 minutes, ensuring tablets with PVPP disintegrant break down instantly.

Processing Protocol
1.Direct Compression: Use 2–8% w/w (optimize via sieve analysis)
2.Wet Granulation: Pre-blend with API; max 60°C drying temp
3.Reactivity: Avoid alkaline binders (pH >9 causes hydrolysis)
4.Packaging: 20kg PE-lined drums (nitrogen purge; RH <40%)
Tableting Advantages
◥ ODT Optimization: Disintegration <30 sec without effervescence
◥ High-Dose Compatibility: Stable with APIs up to 70% drug load
