Key Points

To investigate how the structure of additives influences the spherulitic growth of L-isoleucine crystals.
Conducted experiments with various molecular structures of additives
Used hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) to modify crystallization
Analyzed crystal morphology and density of L-isoleucine samples
Additives significantly altered the spherulitic growth of L-isoleucine
Optimized formulations achieved improved bulk density and flowability
Spherulitic growth patterns varied with different molecular structures of additives

Abstract

As one of the essential amino acids, L-isoleucine, tends to crystallize in flaky crystals, yielding low bulk density and poor flowability, hindering downstream processing.While previous studies utilized hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)...
