Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Hot melt extrusion (HME) is an old technology that has been recently adapted to be used in the pharmaceutical industry. HME is a continuous process that is widely used to produce a solid dispersion matrix. The aim of this dissertation is to evaluate different factors that will affect the pharmaceutical formulation properties that are produced using HME. For HME, there are different variables that will affect the product quality such as processing parameters, material selection, material ratio, and the presence of gas or moisture. One aim of this study is to find the most significant factor that affects the product …
