Dry granulation: Dry granulation does not involve the use of a liquid
lubricating agent. This is because constituents utilized might chemically
react with the agent used, thus dry granulation equipment technique is
used.
In dry granulation process first API and excipients are mixed together
through dry mixing.
After mixing of the materials, they are passed through roller powder
compactors for compaction. The results in the formation of slugs. Slugs
are rough form tablets, usually quite large in size.
Mainly excipients used during dry granulation- Diluents:
Mannitol,MCC,Lactose anhydrous, Alpha lactose monohydrate (hydrous),
Disintegrants: sodium starch glycolate, starch 1500, MCC.

Decompression:
The lower punch rises and pushes the tablet upward there is continued residual
die wall friction. As the tablet removed from the lateral pressure is relieved and
the tablet undergoes elastic recovery with an increased portion (2-10%) of the
volume of that portion of the tablet removed from the die.
This process requires force in three phases:

Force of Distribution
Because of difference between the force applied at the upper punch and
that affecting material close to the lower punch, a mean compaction force-
FM has been proposed, where:
FM= (FA+ FL)/2
FM offers a practical friction independent measure of compaction load,
which is generally more relevant than FA. In single station presses, where
the applied force transmission decays exponentially. A more appropriate
geometric mean force FG might be:
FG= (FA×FL)1/2

The particular value of heckle plot arises from their ability to identify the
predominant form of deformation in a given sample. Materials that are
comparatively soft and that readily undergo plastic deformation retain
different degree of porosity, depending upon the initial packing of die.
This in turn is influenced by the size distribution, shape etc. of the original
particles. Heckel plots for such materials are shown by type”a”- sodium
chloride is a typical example.

Conclusion
The importance of each will largely depend on the type of compact required
whether soft or hard and on the brittle properties of the materials.
