Ethyl cellulose is prepared from wood pulp or cotton by treating it with alkali and ethyl chloride over 10-20 hours at 90-150 degrees Celsius. It is a white to light tan cellulose ether used in pharmaceutical applications such as bioadhesive drug delivery systems, extended release solid dosage forms, emulsification, coating, flavor fixing, tablet binding and filling, viscosity increasing, compressibility enhancement, thickening and stabilization, and disintegration. It finds pharmaceutical uses due to its ability to control drug release rates.

Free flowing, white to light tan cellulose ether in which
ethyl groups replace hydrogen in the hydroxyl groups of glucose residues SOURCES & PROCESS Ethyl cellulose is prepared from wood pulp or cotton by treatment of alkali and ethylation of the alkali cellulose with the ethyl chloride. Ethylation process takes place for over a period of ten to twenty hours at the temperature of 90-150 degrees celcius. PHARMACEUTICAL USES Applied in bioadhesive and mucoadhesive drug delivery systems Applied in Extended Release (ER) Solid dosage forms Emulsifier Coating agent Flavoring fixative Tablet Binder and Filler Viscosity-increasing agent Compressibility enhancer Thickening and Stabilizing agent Disintegrating Agent
