Triacetin is a high-purity, multifunctional excipient. It acts as a plasticiser in gelatine and HPMC capsule coatings, improving flexibility, reducing brittleness, and enhancing shelf life. As a solvent and humectant, Triacetin stabilises active ingredients and maintains moisture balance, ensuring consistent dosing and effective taste masking. Its binding properties help to agglomerate powder particles during tablet formation. This ensures structural integrity and aids in tablet compression, resulting in a stable and uniform dosage form. Triacetin is used in chewable tablets and oral liquid formulations as a carrier for flavours and fragrances, owing to its mild taste and odour.
