Growing demand for controlled release formulations reflects the need for enhanced patient comfort across diverse APIs. These formulations reduce dosing frequency—benefiting pediatric and geriatric patients especially—while increasing bioavailability and minimizing side effects. Clariant offers specialized PEGs and PEG-derivatives that precisely modify API dissolution rates, supporting effective product lifecycle extension through reformulation.
 
Counterions enhance drug solubility by forming dissociable salts that improve bioavailability. Clariant's pharmaceutical-grade Meglumine serves as an effective counterion for anionic APIs (pKa < 6), offering versatile functionality beyond its traditional use in contrast media. As both a salt-forming agent and functional excipient, Meglumine enhances API solubility and stability while providing precise pH adjustment for optimal pharmaceutical formulations.
 
Oral dosage forms remain dominant in pharmaceutical delivery, with direct compression technology revolutionizing tablet manufacturing. Clariant's specialized PEGs and PEG-derivatives enhance flowability and compressibility while supporting continuous manufacturing processes. Our excipients maintain tablet quality even with high API loads, offering pharmaceutical manufacturers a simplified, cost-effective alternative to wet granulation methods.
 
Pharmaceutical formulations require effective preservation systems to protect against microbial contamination and to maintain product integrity over time. Ideal preservatives are stable across a broad pH range, non-sensitizing, non-toxic, and effective at low concentrations against a wide spectrum of microorganisms.
Clariant offers a comprehensive range of preservatives (produced under ISO 9001) designed to control microbial bioburden. Our solutions are precisely formulated to deliver optimal antimicrobial efficacy at application-appropriate concentrations, tailored to meet the specific needs of your products.
 
The mRNA revolution has dramatically expanded therapeutic possibilities across multiple disease areas. Lipid Nanoparticles (LNPs) are crucial for protecting and delivering mRNA, with PEG-Lipids providing essential stabilization. Clariant supplies pharmaceutical-grade Methoxy Polyethylene Glycols (mPEGs) as key starting materials for PEG-Lipid development and protein PEGylation, supporting innovative RNA therapies and vaccines with enhanced circulation time and stability.
 
Pharmaceutical formulators require precise rheological control for topical applications. Clariant's Motusflex polymers, manufactured under GMP conditions, deliver exceptional batch consistency with defined impurity profiles. These pre-neutralized, synthetic cross-linked polymers simplify processing while providing scalability from R&D to production. Our rheology modifiers achieve targeted viscosity in both high and low viscous formulations, maintaining stability in high-salt environments while delivering superior sensorial properties through cold-processing compatibility.
 
With approximately 40% of new APIs hindered by poor water solubility, pharmaceutical companies face significant bioavailability challenges affecting efficacy, side effect profiles, and market competitiveness. Clariant addresses these challenges with our comprehensive range of PEGs and PEG-derivatives that effectively enhance API solubility. Our specialized solubilizers improve bioavailability and therapeutic performance while accelerating time-to-market for pharmaceutical formulations.
 
FDA approvals for sensitive pharmaceutical delivery systems have increased significantly as treatments for chronic and rare diseases expand. Clariant supports these formulations with premium excipients: VitiPure LEX (Low endotoxin excipients for sensitive formulations) and VitiPure Superior (Highly purified excipients for sensitive APIs into sensitive formulations).
