3D-printing bases

The materials behind every print.

Pete Pharma develops and supplies the anhydrous bases its formulas print from, and is moving to vegetable-derived bases only: every new base is plant-derived, and PEG-3D6 is retained for the select formulas where it performs best. None is animal-derived, all are GMO-free and BSE/TSE compliant, and each ships with a signed allergen declaration.

Formulation work in the Pete Pharma lab
Immediate release & rapid dissolveExtended & controlled releaseFunction & absorption
TS-88™Immediate-release thermoresponsive matrix

The workhorse IR base; prints clean and sets fast. The same material we supply as an emulsifier, used here as a melt matrix.

IR tablets · ODT · chewables · trochesVegetable-derived
QuickMelt-64™Fast-disintegrating orally-dissolving matrix

Porous, fast-collapsing structure that releases the active on contact with saliva.

ODT / rapid-melt tablets · taste-masked chewablesSynthetic
PVP-3D™Rapid-dissolve porous matrix

Dissolves quickly in water and helps actives adhere to mucosa.

Pediatric & high-dose IR · nasal rinse tabletsSynthetic
PEG-3D6™High-structure IR matrix with greater load capacity

Carries more API per tablet while keeping a clean melt. Retained for the select formulas where it performs best.

ODT · combination tablets · nasal rinse tabletsSynthetic
Lipocore-G™Vegetable-derived lipid-core extended-release matrix

Our primary ER matrix: a lipid core that meters release over hours and improves uptake of lipophilic actives.

ER tablets · dual-layer IR/ER · gel tabletsVegetable-derived
Soluglide-59™Self-emulsifying extended-release lipid matrix

Slows release while enhancing uptake of lipophilic compounds; pairs with Lipocore-G in ER and bi-layer tablets.

ER tablets · lipid-controlled release · absorption-enhanced ERVegetable-derived
LipofMatrix-88™Hydrophobic lipid-matrix release system

Vegetable-derived lipid matrix for lipid-controlled release.

ER tablets · enhanced absorptionVegetable-derived
Soluglide-44™Self-emulsifying lipid solubility enhancer

Softer-melt companion to Soluglide-59 for absorption-enhanced tablets.

Absorption-enhanced IR · softer-melt formatsVegetable-derived
Liposorb-CC™Enhances dissolution of poorly soluble APIs

Raises bioavailability of difficult actives in a vegetable-derived matrix.

Bioavailability-enhanced tablets · specialty formsVegetable-derived
Silica-3D™Flow, moisture & dose-uniformity control

Adsorbs oils and eutectics; keeps low-dose inks uniform.

Precision low-dose tablets · stability-sensitive APIsSynthetic
PuraFilm-3D™Thin-film polymeric delivery matrix

Plant-based film that casts and dries at room temperature.

Intramucosal & oral thin-film strips · sublingual micro-doseVegetable-derived
Why anhydrous

Stable by design.

Water is what shortens a compounded preparation’s life. Pete Pharma bases are anhydrous melt matrices: they set in minutes at room temperature, carry a 6-month beyond-use date, and ship without cold packs. Partner pharmacies order them, with pricing, through the partner portal.
