Data regarding particle size distribution, thermal properties and gaseous phase hydration of co-milled solid dispersions composed of tadalafil and Soluplus

Abstract

A mechanical activation of the solid particles upon high-energy ball milling may considerably change the physicochemical properties of pharmaceutical compounds, including the morphology, particle size distribution, thermal properties, and surface interactions with water vapour upon gaseous phase hydration. Assessment of these changes is crucial for optimizing the manufacturing process of enabling drug products. In this article, we provide a detailed characterization of binary co-milled solid dispersions composed of tadalafil and Soluplus using a laser diffraction method, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), gravimetric measurements and solid state 1H- NMR spectroscopy. The data presented in this article is directly related to our previously published research article. They complement information on the impact that both formulation and process variables may have on the properties of these binary powder formulations.
