Abstract
Investigations on the compaction mechanisms of pharmaceutical substanc es using an evaluation method for force-time curves of a rotary tablet machine are presented. The machine speed is shown to have only little influence on the compaction behavior. Looking at the compression forc e, not only a quantification of plastic or brittle deformation behavio r as well as a detection of elastic relaxation is presented but also a description of the disposition to porosity reduction.
