PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide aqueous compositions used when producing a capsule shell and capsule with functional polymer dispersions.SOLUTION: Provided is an aqueous composition for the manufacture of capsule shells comprising: an aqueous dispersion of a functional polymer in which the polymer is present in an amount ranging from about 5% to about 50% by weight of the total weight of the aqueous composition; at least one processing aid present in an amount ranging from about 0.5% to about 20% by weight of the total weight of the aqueous composition; and water, the at least one processing aid being a plasticizer of about 6 to about 20 mass% of the total mass of the aqueous composition. Furthermore, the at least one processing aid is about 0.1 to about 10 mass%, preferably about 0.5 to about 10 mass% of a coagulant aid based on the total mass of the aqueous composition. The functional polymer is a polymer for colon delivery, an enteric-coated polymer, and a polymer with moisture proof and improved emission characteristics.SELECTED DRAWING: None【課題】機能性ポリマー分散液でカプセルシェル及びカプセルを製造する際に使用する水性組成物の提供。【解決手段】カプセルシェルの製造の為の水性組成物であって、機能性ポリマーの水性分散液、ここで該ポリマーが、該水性組成物の総質量の約5~約50質量%の量で存在し、水性組成物の総質量の約0.5~約20質量%の量の少なくとも一つの加工助剤及び水を含んでなり、少なくとも一つの加工助剤が、水性組成物の総質量の約6~約20質量%の量の可塑剤である、水性組成物。更に少なくとも一つの加工助剤が、水性組成物の総質量の約0.1~約10質量%、好ましくは約0.5~約10質量%の凝集助剤である、組成物。機能性ポリマーが結腸送達用ポリマーであり、腸溶性ポリマーで、防湿性を備えた、改良された放出特性を有する、ポリマーである、組成物。【選択図】なし
