Overview of Magnesium stearate

What's Magnesium stearate ?

Magnesium Stearate, also referred to as magnesium octadecanoic a metallic derivative that is produced from magnesium and sodium stearate. It is a fine white powder that is free of sand. it has a distinct smell and has a slick feeling when it comes into contact with the skin. This product is insoluble water either ethanol or ether and is utilized primarily as an anti-adhesive, lubricant and glidant. It is especially suitable for the extraction of oils and extracts and the granules formulated are highly compressible and fluid. Useful as a flow aid for direct compression. It can also be utilized as an aid to filtering, a clarifying agent, as well as a foaming agent, as well as an effective suspending agent as well as a thickening agent in liquid preparations.

Application areas of Magnesium stearate:

1. Magnesium-stearate is commonly used in medicinal products and health care products

3. Magnesium stearate is a component of food

Magnesium , stearate, is typically used on foods that have been pressed (tablet candy and milk tablets, nuts chips and dietary fiber tablets honey tablets, etc. ) This can increase liquidity, non-stickiness, and lubricity and also enhance its surface. The gloss can make the pressed tablets uniform and smooth, and requires process addition.

Also, magnesium stearate is often used to make coatings such as rubber, plastics textiles, and many other industrial fields.

It's an excellent lubricant and dispersion stabilizing auxiliary. It can also serve as for a filter aid, clarifying agent, a foaming agent, and a thickener, suspending agent, and a suspension agent used in liquid formulations.

Magnesium Stearate Harmful to human health

Magnesium Sterate is insoluble water and organic solutions but is highly soluble when heated acids and ethanol. When the body ingests magnesium-stearate, magnesium produces chemical reactions when it comes in contact with gastric acids to create magnesium chloride and stearic acids. Magnesium chloride is soluble water , which means that it can excrete it through sweat and urine. Moreover, stearic acid can be absorb by the body. Therefore, magnesium-stearate does not cause any harm to our body.
