Title: why does different type of tablet take longer to disintegrate than another one ?

Why does different type of tablet take longer to disintegrate than another one ?
After watching this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LJgRxVKR3c) it made me wonder why.
Is it all because of the hardness of the tablet , solubility of tablet , and the factors affecting the rate of reaction between the tablet and the solvent used to disintegrate it ?
