Silica (Silicon Dioxide)

Silicon Dioxide, also known as silica, is a crucial excipient widely used in the pharmaceutical industry. This naturally occurring mineral is processed into a fine, inert powder, making it ideal for various formulations. It excels as a glidant, anti-caking agent, and carrier for active ingredients.

Silicon Dioxide improves the flow of powders, ensuring smooth processing and efficient filling during tablet and capsule manufacturing. Its high absorption capacity helps prevent clumping by effectively absorbing moisture and other volatiles. Additionally, it stabilizes sensitive active ingredients, protecting them from degradation and extending the product's shelf life.

Applications:

• Anti-caking agent in powders and granules
• Glidant for enhancing flow in formulations
• Stabilizer for moisture-sensitive and delicate active ingredients
• Carrier in controlled-release formulations

Features:

• High moisture absorption capacity
• Improves flow and prevents caking
• Chemically inert and non-reactive with active ingredients
• Compatible with a wide range of formulations

Compliance: Silicon Dioxide meets all major pharmacopeial standards, including USP, EP, and JP, ensuring its suitability for global use.
