Overview of Magnesium stearate

What exactly is Magnesium stearate ?

Magnesium-stearate, also known as magnesium octadecanoic an alloy of metals that is created from sodium stearate and magnesium. It is a white, fine powder that is free of sand. it has a distinct smell as well as a slippery feeling when it comes into contact with skin. This powder is insoluble in water but can be dissolved in ether, ethanol or even water and is mostly used as a lubricant, anti-adhesive agent and glider. It is especially suitable for the preparation of oils and extracts and the granules that are prepared offer excellent compressibility and fluidity. Used as a flow aid for direct compression. It can also serve as an aid to filtering, a clarifying agent, and as a foaming agent, in addition to an agent to suspend liquids and as a thickening agent in liquid preparations.

The application areas of Magnesium Stearate:

1. Magnesium is an ingredient in the manufacture of medicines and health products

Magnesium stearate is a novel accessory material that is employed as a film-forming material for solid preparations, as a thickener for liquid suspension preparations such as suspensions, other similar applications. Magnesium-stearate is neither toxic nor edible. It is also extensively used as an additive for health care products. It is usually used as a coating for tablets due to its ability to let the health care products out in precise timings as required and can also be used for lubrication. Active ingredient.

2 . magnesium stearate that is used in cosmetics

Magnesium stearate is used primarily in powdery cosmetics like talcum, powder, powder, blush eye shadows, etc. It may enhance the adhesion as well as the lubricity of different powders to skin. It's primarily used to cover, smoothing, and stretching. Adhesion, absorption, etc.

3. Magnesium Stearate is used in food preparation.

Magnesium stearate can be found mainly on foods that have been pressed (tablet candy dairy tablets, nut chips or dietary fiber tablets honey tablets and so on. ) which may increase its fluidity and anti-stickiness and lubricity of the material and also improve how the tablet's surface appears. The gloss helps make the tablets uniform and smooth, and can be used in process addition.

In addition, magnesium is often used to make coatings and rubbers, plastics, textile, and other industrial fields.

It's an excellent lubricant and dispersion stabilizing secondary. It can also be utilized as an aid to filtering, clarifying agent, foaming agent, as well as the thickener and suspending agent for liquid preparations.

Magnesium Stearate It is harmful to human health

Magnesium stearate remains insoluble in organic solutions and water but is soluble in hot acidic and ethanol. When the body consumes magnesium stearateor magnesium stearate undergoes chemical reactions with gastric acids, creating magnesium chloride and stearic acids. Magnesium chloride is soluble in water so that the body is able to eliminate it via sweat and urine. In addition, it can be absorb by the body. Therefore, magnesium Stearate does not cause harm to human bodies.
