  • each of the final particles formed from the strands has a substantially plastic nature. This is surprising because of the presence of crystalline materials such as the inorganic salt.

Further, despite their plastic nature, which facilitates extrusion, the strands are readily breakable and, at the same time, are substantially non-friable. Ready breakability is generally not characteristic of plastic materials and non-friability is usually not characteristic of breakable materials. Accordingly, the
