In the present study the lubricant capacity of Compritol® HD5 ATO was compared with commonly used amphiphilic lubricants. The

effect of the concentration and mixing time on flow properties, tablet ejection force, hardness, disintegration time and rate of dissolution of paracetamol tablets was evaluated.

The physical properties of the lubricants such as crystallinity, wettability, thermal behaviour and surface area were also measured.

Compritol® HD5 ATO was found to be an as effective a lubricant for a fast disintegrating paracetamol formulation containing microcrystalline cellulose, lactose and PVP prepared by wet granulation in comparison with sodium stearyl fumarate and PEG 6000.

In this study the lubricant capacity of Compritol HD5 ATO is compared to Compritol 888 ATO. It shows that mixing lubricants with Lactopress present no structural differences and that they have equivalent compressibility and cohesiveness. This study concludes

that Compritol HD5 ATO could be a very interesting excipient because it associates the glyceryl dibehenate lubricant capacity with the polyethylene glycol property of enhanced dissolution.
