Sodium Stearate is a versatile pharmaceutical excipient derived from the sodium salt of stearic acid. Unlike Magnesium Stearate (a lubricant), Sodium Stearate is primarily an essential Emulsifying and Gelling Agent. It is characterized by its high solubility in hot water and alcohol, making it a vital component in the preparation of topical pharmaceutical formulations, personal care products, and also serving as a binder and lubricant (to a lesser extent) in tablets.
Gels, Vaginal Suppositories, Solid Deodorants.
Its high capacity for gel formation in the presence of water and alcohols.
Compressed tablets and oral capsules.
Serves as a reliable binder and flow enhancer when used in low concentrations.
Soaps and personal care products requiring setting/thickening.
Characterized by good foaming properties and high emulsion stability.
The product fully complies with the requirements specified in the National Formulary (NF), the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.), and/or other food/supplementary standards (FCC).
Precise control over the pH (typically slightly alkaline) is maintained to ensure compatibility with sensitive topical formulations.
Strict control over excipient purity and moisture content to ensure stability and functional properties.
Production is conducted in a rigorous cGMP environment, ensuring consistency in physical properties (e.g., particle size).
