Ascorbic Acid Derivative Film Properties

Example 7

FIG. 90 is a table summarizing embodiments of films of the present disclosure. Sodium ascorbyl phosphate, magnesium ascorbyl phosphate and ascorbic acid glucoside could be cast in films with varying appearance. Sodium ascorbyl phosphate films were opaque and white with a textured top surface similar to plastic. Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate films were clear and cloudy with a textured top surface similar to plastic. Ascorbic acid-2-glucoside films were most similar to L-ascorbic acid films although slightly less pliable and slightly textured. All films were soluble with an insoluble border. In an embodiment, a film with an insoluble border can be made completely spreadable by punching a shape from the region contained within the soluble section.
