The tack modifying effects of citrate compounds on hydroxypropylmethylcellulose solution / Nur Mariana Ayub

The study sets to determine the effects of plasticizers on the tackiness of the hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) solution. The HPMC solution, without or with the incorporation of plasticizers, was subjected to the tack measurement by using the torsion balance at 30°C. The plasticizers used were c...
