Smartseal 30 D
Molecular weight ~ 200 000 dalton
Viscosity 2-50 mPas
Particle size Approx. 150 nm (laser scattering)
pH-Value 7.5-10.0
Residual monomers max. 100 ppm
Minimum film forming temperature (MFT) Approx. 57C
Glass transition temperature (Tg) 57C
Water cannot act as plasticizer within the lipophilic polymer.
Consequently, the measured MFT of Kollicoat
Smartseal 30 D is higher
than of other well known polymer dispersions.

Neutralization curve of the diluted dispersion (50 g; 10% solids content)
The addition of hydrochloric acid leads to the formation of a polymeric
buffer system. At values of pH 5.5 and below, the polymer dissolves
and the milky white dispersion turns into a clear solution.

Selection of a plasticizer
Due to the methyl- methacrylic moiety the co- polymer is relatively
hard and brittle. Several plasticizers can be used in combination with
Kollicoat
Smartseal 30 D.
Recommended plasticizers
Optimal concentration:
13 15% w/w
(calculated on the polymer)
Tributyl citrate (TBC)
Triethyl citrate (TEC)
Acetyltriethyl citrate (ATEC)
Acetyltributyl citrate/ docusate

Addition of an antioxidant
Antioxidants are required to stabilize the aminoester moiety and
thereby dissolution behavior and reduce yellowing under stress
conditions.

Antioxidants are required to stabilize tablet coatings. BHT is the first choice.
Pigments are particularly important for moisture barrier formulations.
Talc shows the best results.
