What are specialty chemicals?

Specialty chemicals, also known as specialty or fine chemicals, refer to a diverse category of chemical products that are produced in relatively small quantities but have high value-added. These chemicals are typically manufactured to meet specific performance or function requirements rather than for bulk consumption. Specialty chemicals find applications in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, cosmetics, personal care, automotive, electronics, and construction.

 Pharcos Speciality Ltd stands as a trailblazing Indian manufacturing company, successfully catering to both local and international markets. Our commitment to delivering affordable solutions without compromising on quality sets us apart, allowing us to challenge established manufacturing hubs and position India as a key player in the global specialty chemicals industry. With our innovative approach and dedication to excellence, we are making significant strides in capturing a substantial share of the global market.

What are Excipients?

Excipients are inert substances used as carriers or vehicles for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) in pharmaceutical formulations. These substances serve various purposes in drug delivery systems, including:

1. Bulking agents: Excipients may add bulk to formulations to facilitate handling, processing, and dosage measurement of medications.
2. Binders: They help bind the active ingredients together in solid dosage forms such as tablets and capsules, ensuring proper cohesion and uniformity.
3. Disintegrants: Excipients aid in the breakup or disintegration of tablets or capsules into smaller particles upon ingestion, allowing for efficient dissolution and absorption of the active ingredients in the gastrointestinal tract.
4. Lubricants and glidants: These substances reduce friction during tablet compression and promote smooth flow of powder mixtures, ensuring uniform tablet weight and preventing sticking to the tablet press equipment.
5. Fillers and diluents: Excipients may serve as fillers or diluents to adjust the volume of formulations or to provide additional properties such as taste masking or improved stability.
6. Coatings: Excipients are used to apply coatings to tablets or capsules for various purposes, including protection against degradation, taste masking, delayed release, or targeted delivery to specific sites in the body.
