Polytetrafluoroethylene Coating as a Suppository Mold Releasing Agent

The release quality of suppository molds with either smooth or damaged polytetrafluoroethylene coated or uncoated cavity surfaces was compared using four different suppository bases. The release of suppositories from damaged molds was improved by coating the damaged cavity surfaces with polytetraflu...

Description
Summary:The release quality of suppository molds with either smooth or damaged polytetrafluoroethylene coated or uncoated cavity surfaces was compared using four different suppository bases. The release of suppositories from damaged molds was improved by coating the damaged cavity surfaces with polytetrafluoroethylene. Such a coating did not appreciably improve the release characteristics of new molds.
