title: Effects of applied load and particle size on the plastoelasticity and tablet strength of some directly compressible powders.
abstract: Correlations have been established between the particle size and packing fraction of microcrystalline cellulose, calcium phosphate dihydrate, corn starch and lactose, and the elastic recovery, stress relaxation, and tensile strengths of their tablets.
