Abstrakt: Hot-melt extrusion (HME) technology is one of the primary approaches that has been implemented in recent years to overcome poor drug solubility/dissolution issues through the development of solid dispersion systems. Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) either in supercritical (SupC) or subcritical (SubC) forms has been introduced to HME as a temporary plasticizer, reducing the operating temperature and eventually processing heat-sensitive molecules more efficiently. In this paper, a comprehensive review of CO 2 -HME processes focused on pharmaceutical polymers and applications is presented. The steps and requirements for the setup of experimental devices are demonstrated, with a detailed influence of CO 2 characteristics on HME processes. The most relevant physical and chemical properties of pharmaceutical grade polymers subjected to the CO 2 - HME process are described. The basic knowledge and main mechanisms of HME process parameters in conjunction with CO 2 concentration with regard to process feasibility and final product formation are discussed. HME coupled with CO 2 is extensively reviewed to provide a complete understanding of how to optimize the process parameters and conditions to reach optimized characteristics of final outcomes, as well as the sequential relationship between those outcomes (foaming → porosity → milling → tableting). Pharmaceutical applications of CO 2 -based HME are presented in detailed case studies, including extrusion feasibility, solubility, dissolution rate enhancement, and gastroretentive or floating drug delivery. Finally, the current status of general CO 2 -based techniques, as well as future perspectives and opportunities for promising applications through the integration of CO 2 with HME is presented.
