Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a soft capsule agent stably preservable at room temperature even in a hot and humid environment in summer season, etc., without causing the adhesion of capsules by moisture and heat, etc., by using a coating film containing a water-insoluble cellulose and an inorganic acid salt. CONSTITUTION:The objective soft capsule agent can be prepared by (1) mixing gelatin, glycerol, etc., with (A) a water-insoluble cellulose or its derivative (e.g. crystalline cellulose or ethyl cellulose) and/or a water-insoluble inorganic acid salt (e.g. monobasic phosphate such as monobasic calcium phosphate, dibasic phosphate such as dibasic calcium phosphate, alkaline-earth metal salt such as precipitated CaCO3 or MgCO3, etc.) and (B) purified water at 80 deg.C for 3hr under heating to form a soft capsule coating agent consisting of a sol solution of gelatin, (2) mixing the solution with tocopherol acetate and sesame oil under stirring to obtain a homogeneous liquid mixture to be used as a content and (3) coating the content with the coating agent by a filling machine. The amount of the cellulose and inorganic acid is 3-50 pts.wt. per 100 pts.wt. of gelatin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a novel soft capsule, and more particularly to a soft capsule in which capsules do not stick to each other due to moisture absorption, heating, or the like.

(Prior Art and Problems) Soft capsules are manufactured by filling active ingredients into a film prepared by blending -a with gelatin and a mulcholizer such as glycerin or sorbitol.

The hardness of the capsule film is determined mainly by the amount of glycerin and water content, and the higher the content of glycerin and water, the softer the capsule film becomes. And users tend to prefer soft capsules.

For this reason, attempts have been made to increase the amount of glycerin in the capsule film, but soft capsules, even hard ones,
When stored at high temperatures or high humidity, it was unavoidable that the capsules would stick to each other, but as the amount of glycerin was increased, the tendency to stick to each other would further increase, and in severe cases, the film would dissolve.

Conventionally, methods to solve this problem include coating the surface with shellac, carnauba wax, etc. to prevent moisture absorption, but these methods have not yet been fully satisfactory.

(Means for Solving Problem 0!) Under such circumstances, the present inventor has conducted extensive research and found that if water-insoluble cellulose or its derivatives or water-insoluble inorganic acid salts are blended into the capsule film, The inventors have discovered that the above problems can be solved and have completed the present invention.

Examples of the water-insoluble cellulose or its derivatives used in the present invention include crystalline cellulose and ethyl cellulose. Examples of water-insoluble inorganic acid salts include primary phosphoric acid, secondary phosphoric acid, and alkaline earth metal salts of carbonic acid.
Particularly preferred are monocalcium phosphate, dibasic calcium phosphate, precipitated calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, etc. The amount of these cellulose, cellulose derivatives and inorganic acid salts is 3 to 50% per 1 ozEk part of gelatin! i parts, especially 5
~35! It is preferable to mix i parts. If the amount is less than this, the object of the present invention will not be achieved, and if it is blended in an amount exceeding this, there will be problems with moldability.
