Question

what are wet granulation ?​

Answer 1

Wet granulation (involving wet massing) Wet granulation involves the massing of a mix of dry primary powder particles using agranulating fluid (the process of adding a liquid solution to powders). The fluid contains a solvent which must be volatile so that it can be removed by drying, and be non-toxic.

Answer 2

Granulation is the process of forming of grains or granules from a powdery or solid substance, producing a granular material. It is applied in several technological processes in chemical and pharmaceutical industry. Typically, granulation involves agglomeration of fine particles into larger granules, typically of size range between 0.2 and 4.0 mm depending on their subsequent use. Less commonly, it involves shredding or grinding solid material into finer granules or pellets.
