The effect of particle morphology of the components on the physical stability of ordered mixtures was determined for a model system comprised of a mixture of micronized aspirin and a monodisperse carrier. Spray-dried lactose, crystallized lactose, microcrystalline cellulose, and dextrate were used as carriers. The surface texture of the carriers was quantified in terms of the ratio of the perimeter of the particles to that of an idealized shape at a constant magnification. Mixtures containing highly textured carriers segregated to a lesser extent than those containing smoother textured carriers. This was postulated to be due to the presence of a higher concentration of surface asperities on the coarse carriers that can constitute potentially strong adhesion sites for the fine component because of their higher energy relative to adjacent areas on the surface. The effect of the addition of a ternary component, magnesium stearate, on the stability of the above mixtures was studied. The observed differences in the segregation response were attributed to electrostatic charge effects.
