(i) Well-balanced between formability and disintegrability
Generally, lactose manufactured by high shear granulation method is inferior in formability.
On the other hand, lactose manufactured by the spray dry method is superior in formability, while it tends to be inferior in disintegrability.
In contrast, Dilactose™ manufactured by the fluidized-bed granulation method is excellent in both aspects, so that quickly disintegrating high-hardness tablets can be obtained.
(ii) Excellent mixability and fluidity
Dilactose™ S and F have incredible fluidity despite their small particle sizes.
This feature is derived from the manufacturing method in which fine lactose crystals are also accurately granulated.
(iii) Excellent storage stability
Since it is less hygroscopic than spray-dried lactose, the possibility of caking over time is extremely low.
