Synopsis

Tablet technology, from formulation to production, involves many problems of measurement and control; its implementation is usually one of the responsibilities of the pharmacist. Instrumentation, on the other hand, has its roots in engineering, physics, and electronics. Formal courses in pharmacy can only give limited time to these topics and, until now, there has been no single work of reference that would conveniently bridge the gap between disciplines. This book has been written specifically for the pharmaceutical technologist, and is effectively in two parts. Part 1 consists of a review of measurement techniques for those variables, such as force, displacement, and temperature, that are of importance in our understanding, and our control, of the compaction process. Part 2 reviews selected applications of instrumentation study, production, and subsequent testing of compressed tablets.
