Study Notes

Milling in Pharmaceutical Materials

  • Fibrous drugs, such as roots, peels, and wood, exhibit high toughness.
  • A screen in the mill casing acts as a self-classifying mechanism, retaining material until a sufficient degree of size reduction is achieved.
  • Coarse size reduction is suitable for tough fibrous materials, such as liquorice and rhubarb, prior to extraction.

Factors Affecting Milling

  • Heat can affect thermolabile materials during the milling process.
  • The size of the product can be controlled, with maximum size reduction occurring under optimal conditions.

Milling Limitations

  • Excessive feed can produce a cushioning effect, limiting the milling process.
