A process parameters dataset for the extrusion 3D printing of nutraceutical oral dosage forms formulated with monoglycerides oleogels and phytosterols mixtures

Abstract

We report the parameter settings used in different 3D printing tests carried out to evaluate the production of nutraceutical oral forms by using mixtures of monoglycerides oleogels and phytosterols as printing materials. The printer employed was an ad-hoc extrusion 3D printing system adapted from a Prusa printer. The dataset here informed would serve as a starting point for the implementation of the 3D printing process to fabricate products using oleogels or printing materials with similar characteristics. This data is related to our recent research article entitled “Extrusion 3D printing of nutraceutical oral dosage forms formulated with monoglycerides oleogels and phytosterols mixtures” [1].
