What is film coating?
A thin and uniform membrane of polymer is added around the surface of a substrate. There are two types of film coats: non-enteric and enteric coating. Non-enteric coatings are water-soluble. Examples of non-enteric coating include methycellulose, PVP, PEG, HPMC, and NACMC. Enteric coatings are resistant to stomach pH yet they are more soluble in alkaline environments. They are often used for drugs which are known to be easily inactivated by stomach acid causing stomach irritation (eg. aspirin). Examples of enteric coating include cellulose acetate phthalate, polyvinyl acetate phthalate, and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose phthlate. Solvents used include water, methylene chloride + ethanol, water, acetone, methanol, or isopropanol. Plasticizers such as glycerin or propylene glycol are often added to make the film more flexible by being more resistant to mechanical strength.
