How is Mannitol used in tableting?

PEARLITOL mannitol granular powders give good hardness results under industrial compression conditions. These results demonstrate that PEARLITOL mannitol granular powders are effective fillers and binders for DC applications. Some of the physical properties that make this great for DC are Excellent free flowing, Good compactibility with low friability,  No sensitivity to tabletting speed, No lubricant sensitivity, Good dilution potential.
