Director R&D, JRS Pharma, LP Agenda 1 Introduction 2 Manufacturing Challenges 3 Lubrication 101 4 Choosing a Lubricant 5 Summary Production Concerns Achieving efficient lubrication for a trouble-free tablet manufacturing process is a search for the middle-ground between picking and sticking, and over-lubrication. Finding that balance can be difficult.

Die wall lubrication: • Tablet production • Tablet ejection from die Why lubricate? Die wall lubrication: • Tablet production • Tablet ejection from die Why Lubricate? Die wall lubrication: • Tablet production • Tablet ejection from die Why Lubricate? Anti-adherence: • Sticking on punch faces • Better to use an anti-adherent Why lubricate? Reduce interparticulate friction & cohesion: • During compaction o Reduces heat generated during tableting Why lubricate? Improve flowability: • From hopper, through feed frame, and into die • Better to use a flow aid or glidant What are the basic lubricant types? There are two basic lubricant types/mechanisms: 1. Liquid film 2. Boundary • Stearic acid • Magnesium stearate • Hydrogenated oils o Other stearic acids • Sodium stearyl fumarate What are the basic lubricant types? Boundary Liquid Film • Lubricant particles “sheared” • Partial to full melting during during blending process compaction process o Shear increased with mass • Lubricant “squeezed” to outer • Particles “coat” other formulation tablet surface ingredients o Creates “film” interface between o Particles become “slippery” tablet edge and die wall – Tablet edge becomes • Coated particles at die wall reduce “slippery” friction between tablet edge and » Punch faces also affected die wall • Use levels: 2% - 4% • Use levels: 0.25% - 2% o Offers auxilary binding properties o Adversely affects compaction o Typically requires anti-adherent o Adversely affects disintegration o Can affect disintegration and o Adversely affects dissolution dissolution What are the critical parameters? • Blender size and geometry • Particle morphology • Formulation components Mass Shear • Surface area • Blending Time • Tablet shape Die wall contact • Tablet size area Hydrophobicity/ • Dissolution targets hydrophilicity How is it best to determine the optimal level? • Ejection force measurements o Literature suggests 100-300 N – Varies with respect to several parameters » Applied forces » Die wall contact area » Radial die wall pressure » Formulation composition • Tablet hardness / friability • Disintegration / Dissolution results When should lubrication occur? It is generally left up to the formulator.

  • Calcium Stearate Processing
    National Organic Standards Board Technical Advisory Panel (TAP) Review Compiled by University of California Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education Program (UC SAREP) for the USDA National Organic Program Calcium Stearate Processing Executive Summary1 A petition is under consideration with respect to NOP regulations subpart G §205.605, governing the use of substances in processed products: Petitioned: Inclusion of calcium stearate on National List of nonagricultural substances allowed in or on processed products labeled as “organic” or “made with organic (specified ingredients or food group(s)).” Calcium stearate is a compound of calcium with a mixture of solid organic acids obtained from edible sources. It is generally used as a solid-phase lubricant that reduces friction between particles of the substance to which it is added. The Petitioner’s intended use is “as a flow agent (anti-dusting agent)” to be used in dry flour based ingredients sold to bakeries (NOSB Petition). The NOP has no prior listing or ruling on the substance. All three reviewers agreed that the substance should be considered synthetic. The reviewers were divided over the use of calcium stearate in food labeled as “organic.” Two of the reviewers felt it should not be allowed in these foods, while one reviewer felt it should be accepted. One reviewer who voted to restrict its use indicated that more information was needed on the nature of the substance and its potential applications, and the other reviewer felt that inclusion of a “synthetic” substance in organics runs contrary to consumer’s expectations regarding organic products. All three reviewers agreed that the substance should be allowed in products labeled as “made with organic…” ingredients.

Received: 18 December 2013; in revised form: 21 January 2014 / Accepted: 24 January 2014 / Published: 25 February 2014 Abstract: Lubrication plays a key role in successful manufacturing of pharmaceutical solid dosage forms; lubricants are essential ingredients in robust formulations to achieve this. Although many failures in pharmaceutical manufacturing operations are caused by issues related to lubrication, in general, lubricants do not gain adequate attention in the development of pharmaceutical formulations. In this paper, the fundamental background on lubrication is introduced, in which the relationships between lubrication and friction/adhesion forces are discussed. Then, the application of lubrication in the development of pharmaceutical products and manufacturing processes is discussed with an emphasis on magnesium stearate. In particular, the effect of its hydration state (anhydrate, monohydrate, dihydrate, and trihydrate) and its powder characteristics on lubrication efficiency, as well as product and process performance is summarized. In addition, the impact of lubrication on the dynamics of compaction/compression processes and on the mechanical properties of compacts/tablets is presented. Furthermore, the online monitoring of magnesium stearate in a blending process is briefly mentioned. Finally, the chemical compatibility of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) with magnesium stearate and its reactive impurities is reviewed with examples from the literature illustrating the various reaction mechanisms involved.

  • Calcium Stearate (Calcii Stearas)
    The International Pharmacopoeia - Sixth Edition, 2016 Calcium stearate (Calcii stearas) Calcium stearate (Calcii stearas) C H CaO 36 70 4 Chemical name. Calcium stearate; calcium octadecanoate; CAS Reg. No. 1592-23-0. Description. A white to yellowish white, fine, bulky powder; odour, slight, characteristic. Solubility. Practically insoluble in water, ethanol (~750 g/l) TS, acetone R, and ether R. Category. Tablet and capsule lubricant. Storage. Calcium stearate should be kept in a well-closed container. Additional information. The degree of lubrication depends on the particular form and size of the material. Requirements Definition. Calcium stearate consists of calcium salts mainly of stearic acid and palmitic acid in variable proportions. Calcium stearate contains not less than 9.0% and not more than the equivalent of 10.5% of CaO, calculated with reference to the dried substance. Identity tests A. Heat 1 g with a mixture of 25 mL of water and 5 mL of hydrochloric acid (~420 g/l) TS; fatty acids are liberated and float as an oil on the surface of the liquid. The aqueous layer yields the reactions described under 2.1 General identification tests as characteristic of calcium. B. Mix 25 g with 200 mL of hot water, add 60 mL of sulfuric acid (~100 g/l) TS, and heat the mixture until the separated fatty acids layer is clear. Wash it with boiling water until free from sulfates, transfer it to a beaker, and warm on a water-bath until the water separates and the fatty acids are clear. Allow to cool, pour off the water layer, melt the fatty acids, and filter into a dry beaker.

  • EPA Screening-Level Hazard Characterization
    U.S. Environmental Protection Agency September, 2011 Hazard Characterization Document SCREENING-LEVEL HAZARD CHARACTERIZATION Lubricating Grease Thickeners Category (See Appendix for list of chemicals) The High Production Volume (HPV) Challenge Program1 was conceived as a voluntary initiative aimed at developing and making publicly available screening-level health and environmental effects information on chemicals manufactured in or imported into the United States in quantities greater than one million pounds per year. In the Challenge Program, producers and importers of HPV chemicals voluntarily sponsored chemicals; sponsorship entailed the identification and initial assessment of the adequacy of existing toxicity data/information, conducting new testing if adequate data did not exist, and making both new and existing data and information available to the public. Each complete data submission contains data on 18 internationally agreed to ―SIDS‖ (Screening Information Data Set1,2) endpoints that are screening-level indicators of potential hazards (toxicity) for humans or the environment. The Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) is evaluating the data submitted in the HPV Challenge Program on approximately 1400 sponsored chemicals by developing hazard characterizations (HCs). These HCs consist of an evaluation of the quality and completeness of the data set provided in the Challenge Program submissions. They are not intended to be definitive statements regarding the possibility of unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment. The evaluation is performed according to established EPA guidance2,3 and is based primarily on hazard data provided by sponsors; however, in preparing the hazard characterization, EPA considered its own comments and public comments on the original submission as well as the sponsor’s responses to comments and revisions made to the submission.
