Keywords:
force-track record, stress relaxation test, direct tablet compression, dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, lactose, microcrystalline celluloseAbstract
The present study evaluates the compression process of tablets containing microcrystalline cellulose, lactose or calcium hydrogenphosphate dihydrate. The evaluation used the force-displacement record and stress relaxation test. The obtained results also showed that both other methods based on different principles are comparable.
