- Abstract
- To investigate Raman spectral features of a coated biconvex tablet under variation of its orientation respective to laser illumination, spectra of the tablet were collected by illuminating laser on 12 different locations on the tablet with 3 different illumination angles of 45, 75 and 90 degrees. The spectral variations were more substantial when the tablet faces with engraved letters and greater surface curvature were measured, since the sampled volume of coating relative to that of a core tablet changed significantly under these circumstances as the illumination angle varied. The preliminary examination confirmed that the acquisition of tablet-representative spectra was the requisite for reliable measurement of coating thickness. Then, to mimic real monitoring of coating process, Raman spectra were directly collected on a packing of 30 tablets with repetition of random tablet packing up to 15 times and univariate models utilizing the intensity of coating peak at 638 cm(-1) were developed using the cumulatively averaged spectra with an average weight of the 30 tablets as a reference. To acquire less tablet orientation-sensitive spectra, a wide area illumination (WAI) scheme providing a large sampling area (283 mm(2)) on a tablet with a long focal length (similar to 25 cm) was employed. The averaging of the first to seventh spectra, equivalently utilizing more packing-representative spectra for quantitative analysis, made the measurement of nominal coating thickness of packed tablets accurate.
