KoVidone® K60
KoVidone® K60 are an essential ingredient to formulating highly effective pharmaceutical products. The polymers are produced in a state of the art manufacturing facility operating under full cGMP compliance. In addition, all physical handling and packaging of powders is conducted in class-D clean rooms with specific attention placed on reducing the risk of any potential particulate/foreign matter contamination. KoVidone® K series products possess excellent binding, film-forming, dispersing and thickening properties and are widely used.

- Known For
- Binder
- suitable for wet and dry granulation and direct compression in tableting, improves particle compressibility and can be added to powder blends in dry or granulated forms by the addition of water, alcohol or hydro-alcoholic solutions.
- Suspending, stabilizing or viscosity-modifying agent: suitable for topical and oral suspension and solution applications. The solubility of poorly soluble drugs may be enhanced by combining with KoVidone.
- Coating agent or binder
- coating of active pharmaceutical ingredients on a support structure.
