Biodegradable excipients under development
In a press release dated October 5, 2026, Evonik said it is developing a biodegradable polymer platform for the next generation of its EUDRAGIT functional excipients used in oral drug delivery. The company said the materials combine a biodegradable end-of-life profile with performance comparable to current industry standards for solubility enhancement and delayed-release coatings. Non-commercial lab-scale volumes are available for joint development projects with selected partners.
Evonik said the new polymers are classified as biodegradable under OECD 301 F and OECD 301 B testing, with results above 60 percent. The company plans to present the product innovation at CPHI 2026 in Milan on October 7 at 12:30 p.m. at the Sustainability Spotlight Stage.
