Angle of Repose
One method of assessing flow properties is the Angle of Repose.
Powder is allowed to flow freely through a funnel onto the center of an upturned petri dish of known radius When the powder reaches the side of the petri dish the height of the cylindrical cone is determined. From the petri dish radius (r, cm) and cone height (h, cm) the angle of repose (between the petri dish and base of the powder cone) can be calculated. Remember: Tan = Opposite / Adjacent, therefore Tan = h / r.
Flow rate
Flow rate can also be determined by measuring how fast a powder flows through an aperture.
Free flowing powders exhibit a high flow rate and a smaller angle of repose. Angle of repose and flow rate depend on particle size, shape and surface roughness.
Flow properties are frequently enhanced by the use of glidents.
Therefore, if one fills a graduated cylinder to 100 mL with a powder, the weight of powder required may only be 70 g. This apparent density is known as the bulk or expanded density (b, 0.7 g cm-3). If the100 mL cylinder is then tapped, the particles slide past each other and become consolidated. The 70 g of particles which once occupied 100 mL may now only occupy 80 mL. They have an apparent packed or tapped density (p) of 0.875 g cm-3.
Carr's index
Carr's index is a measure of interparticulate forces. If the interparticulate forces are high, powders will have a low bulk density because bridging will occur between particles. This results in a large Carr's index and a large change in volume caused by tapping. If the interparticulate forces are low, particles will have little affinity for one another, and will compact spontaneously. Under these circumstances, Carr's index is small and little change in apparent density is induced by tapping.
Kandungan lembab
Alat uji kandungan lembab Adalah jumlah massa (air) yang hilang selama proses pemanasan (70C)
Prosedur
1. Timbang granul sebanyak 5 g di atas nampan logam (aluminium) 2. Nyalakan alat, cek suhu pada 70C 3. Penetapan kandungan lembab dapat di atur skalanya pada alat (% hilang atau g hilang) 4. Penetapan dihentikan setelah dicapai angka konstant Tujuan
1. Mengontrol kandungan lembab granul sehingga dapat mengantisipasi masalah yang terjadi selama proses pengempaan tablet, terutama kandungan lembab menjadi faktor penyebabnya
2. Mengontrol K.L granul berkaitan dgn pertumbuhan mikroba, jika granul tidak langsung dikempa menjadi tablet
Tablet evaluation
Quantitative evaluations for the tablets chemical, physical, and bioavailability properties should be made, which include:
General appearance Size and shape Identification markings Organoleptic properties Hardness and friability Content uniformity Weight variation Disintegration and dissolution

General appearance
An elegant appearance (shape, size, color, odor, taste, surface texture, imprints) of the tablet is essential for patient acceptance.
Identification markings
In addition to color, size, and shape products can be identified from their tablets using a unique marking.
These markings can be embossed engraved or printed on the tablet surface.
Identification markings
Websites can be used to search for product names from the tablet imprints:
Drugs.com
http://www.drugs.com
Then click on pill identification Type the code in the imprint field and click search
Organoleptic properties
Organoleptic can be defined as: relating to perception by a sensory organ.
It includes the appearance (shiny or dull), color (uniformity), the taste (adding flavors), and the odor (e.g. aspirin) of the product. Visual examination of these properties is possible but with large degree of subjectivity. Electronic equipment for measuring color uniformity and gloss on a tablet surface can be applied.
Kekerasan Tablet
Kekerasan tablet merupakan parameter ketahanan tablet dalam melawan tekanan mekanik seperti goncangan dan terjadinya keretakan tablet selama pengemasan, transportasi dan pemakaian. Alat : Hardness Tester Cara :
Tablet diletakkan pada posisi yang ada pada alat dan alat dihidupkan lalu baca angka yang ditunjukkan pada alat. Dilakukan terhadap 20 tablet yang diambil secara acak.
Kekerasan diukur berdasarkan luas permukaan tablet dengan menggunakan beban yang dinyatakan dalam kg. Satuan kekerasan adalah kg/cm2. Ditentukan kekerasan rata-rata dan standar deviasinya. Syarat : tablet besar : 7-10 kg/cm2 ; tablet kecil : 4 kg/cm2, tapi harus konsisten pada salah satu angka misalnya 6.
Hardness tester
Friability tester
Friability drum Friability test: pre-weighed tablet sample is placed in drum and operated for 100 revolutions at 25 RPM, the tablet sample is collected and re-weighed. Compressed tablet are considered acceptable If weight loss is below 1%. Effervescent and Chewable tablets can show more weight loss. Programmable Tablet Friability Test Apparatus, Model EF-2
Friability
Weigh 10 tablets collectively (Wo) Place the tablets in the friabilator. Set timer for 4 minutes (100 revolutions) After 4 minutes running, reweigh the intact tablets (WF) Report % Friability, calculated as follows:
Content uniformity
The amount of drug in each tablet need to be monitored from tablet to tablet and from batch to batch.
Content uniformity
Content uniformity
Problems in content uniformity might arise from:
Non-uniform distribution of the drug throughout the powder mixture or granulation. Segregation of the powder mixture or granules during processing. Weight variation.
Weight variation
The weight of the tablets being produced should be monitored and controlled to ensure that the proper amount of the drug is contained in the tablets.
The weight variation test is satisfactory to determine the content uniformity if the active ingredient contributes to 95% or more of the tablet weight.
Keragaman Bobot
Alat : Timbangan Cara :
Ditimbang 20 tablet, hitung bobot rata-rata tiap tablet, jika ditimbang satu-persatu, tidak boleh lebih dari 2 tablet yang masing-masing bobotnya menyimpang dari bobot rata-ratanya lebih besar dari harga yang ditetapkan pada kolom A dan 1 tabletpun yang bobotnya menyimpang dari bobot rata-ratanya lebih dari harga yang ditetapkan pada kolom B
Bobot rata- rata Penyimpangan bobot rata-rata dalam % A 25 mg atau kurang 26 mg sampai dengan 150 mg 151 mg sampai dengan 300 mg Lebih dari 300 mg 15 10 7,5 5 B 30 30 15 10
Weight variation
According to USPXX:
20 tablets are individually weighed and the average weight is determined.
No more than two tablets should be outside the percentage limits. No tablet differs by 2 times the percentage limits.

Disintegration
Disintegration: is the breakdown of the tablet into smaller particles or granules. Disintegration time: is the time required for the tablet to completely breakdown and pass through the mesh in the disintegration basket.

Disintegration Time
Place one tablet into each of the six tubes. Set apparatus in motion. Estimate within + 1 minute the time required on the average for the six tablets to disintegrate (In FI IV, not allowed after 15 minutes to core tablet and 30 minutes to coated tablet) The end-point of disintegration is defined in the USP/NF as follows: "...that state where any residue remaining on the screen is a soft mass having no palpably firm core" If the end-point is not reached after 30 minutes, terminate the test and record " > 30minutes ".
