Croscarmellose Sodium is widely used as a superdisintegrant in pharmaceutical tablets capsules and nutraceutical formulations to promote rapid breakup of the dosage form after administration.

Its primary purpose is to enhance the disintegration and dissolution of solid oral dosage forms thereby improving the release and availability of the active pharmaceutical ingredient.

Croscarmellose Sodium is a cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose polymer that appears as a white to off-white free-flowing powder and exhibits high water absorption and swelling properties.
