Granulation (Latin granulum = granules) is one of the most relevant processes in the pharmaceutical industry for the commercial production of medicines and pharmaceuticals.
The aim of granulation is to produce granules that are used directly as medicines or as an intermediate product in the production of tablets or capsules. During granulation, coarser agglomerates are produced from fine powder. These can consist of solid and dry grains, whereby each grain represents an agglomerate of powder particles with sufficient strength. Compared to powders, granulates have better flow properties and can be filled or dosed more effectively, and no dust develops.
