In many cases, such as with hard coated and uncoated tablets, granules and spheroids, it is impossible to determine the friability of the dosage form using a conventional tablet friability tester even if the test time is extended simply because the resistance is such that no measurable attrition is obtained – the energy imparted by the friability tester is just not sufficient to generate quantifiable changes in surface mass.
