NaQ-Z1Wt10
Non-aqueous film coat, extra white
Solvent base extra white film coat for high opacity cover on sensitive cores.
Application
Non-aqueous extra white film coat for moisture sensitive tablets that also need high opacity. It combines a solvent process with the covering power of the Wt10 series.
How it runs
The non-aqueous band applies, around 30 to 35 degrees at the bed with a 60 to 65 degree inlet, with the covering power of the Wt10 series. It suits cores that are both moisture sensitive and hard to cover, where an aqueous extra white is not an option.
Build-up and solids are fixed at trial.

Common questions about NaQ-Z1Wt10
How does NaQ-Z1Wt10 differ from NaQ-Z1Wb?
Opacity. Both run the non-aqueous band, but the Wt10 grade carries the covering power of the extra white series. It suits cores that are both moisture sensitive and hard to cover, where an aqueous extra white is not an option.
