Application
Due to regulatory developments, there is an increasing interest in titanium dioxide-free solutions for the coloring of solid dosage forms. Parteck® TA - our titanium dioxide alternative - is a mineral and nature-identical pigment specifically developed for the use in tablet film coatings. It helps to achieve a level of covering and whiteness comparable to titanium dioxide film coatings without affecting your tablets’ performance. The enhanced opacity is ensured by its unique morphology and designed particle size distribution
