Abstract
Creep compliance was studied during tablet compaction by treating powder deformation or flow as analogous to the rheological behaviour of semi-solids. The creep curves could be differentiated into three distinct regions, corresponding to different types of rheological behaviour: elastic, visco-elastic and plastic deformation. Such curves were found useful in describing the rheological characteristics of direct compression excipients and in interpreting the different mechanical behaviour of powders.
