Applications:
Glidant:
- Forms layer around bulk powder, ball bearing affect
- Helps achieve improved powder flow and minimize sticking and agglomeration
- Improves compression rates and consistency of compression
- Increases active uniformity
Active Carrying:
- High porosity/oil absorption increases absorptive capacity for oils and water
- Liquid ingredients can be converted into free-flowing powders
- Increased advantages for high doses of API in oral suspensions and tablets
Tabletting:
- Consistent compression
- Improved hardness/structural stability
- Enhanced coating
- Improved dissolution
Lotions:
- Viscosity modifiers for topicals and semi-solids with load levels up to 25%
- Matting agent
- Improves and protects powder from agglomeration
- Exfoliation
- Fragrance and active carrying
Characteristics:
- Meets USP/NF Monograph
- Formed using a gelation process; washed, sized, and dried to a fine dry powder
- Resilient structure resistant to grind
- High density, lower dusting
- High porosity for enhanced adsorptive capacity
- Pores integral to the structure
- Narrow pore structure
- Easy to incorporate actives, providing more uniform dispersion of actives and improved content uniformity
