The authors investigate the tablet-coating process using a combination of different simulation techniques. Drum coaters are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry to produce film-coated tablets.

This appendix reviews various coating process technologies: diffusion coating, thermal spray (particulate deposition), physical vapor deposition (atomistic or molecular transfer), and sputtering ...

Powder coatings are created using polymeric resins that are combined with pigments, curatives, flow modifiers, leveling agents, and additional additives. They are both solvent- and water-free systems.
