Question about tablet pressing (XTC ... more)

[coke199]

Hello
I have the manual Tablet press machine TDP-0T
I want to make MDMA pills 120mg of MD and the rest is binder

I have this binders:
- Microcrystalline cellulose
- Maltodextrin
- Pregelatinized starch
- Polyethylene glycol 6000

When I try to press MDMA powder only, I found that it's not cohesive at all, very easy to brake.

Which the best binder to use with the MDMA powder? What is the ratio? How to mix the powders before pressing?
I want to make 10 tablets, Any advice?

Thank y'all

I think you can use magnesium stearate

 

[coke199]

magnesium stearate is a lubricant not a binder,
Lubricants are added to tablet formulations primarily to reduce friction between the die wall and granules as the tablet is formed and ejected.
In short, lubricants are added to the formula to prevent the tablet from sticking inside the machine and causing a problem in ejecting.

Mo0odiWhat is your ratio of amphetamine, caffeine, lactose and the magnesium stearate? (mg)
What is your final tablet weight in mg?
What is the difference between caffeine and lactose?

10% Magnesium Stearate
45% Active ingredient
45% Micro Crystalline Cellulose

If this doesn't work then there is not enough pressure as it definitely works when enough pressure is applied, no need for any other binders, just make sure the active ingredient is crushed and sieved and for this small scale mix in everything in a blender.
