Overview

Assay Purity & Pharmacopoeial Grade Calcium Stearate is a widely used excipient that serves as a lubricant and flow aid in tablet and granulation processes. It is selected to improve powder flow and reduce die friction during high-speed compression. Typical procurement use includes tablet formulation, direct compression support, and as a glidant in powder blends where controlled release of active ingredients is not affected by lubrication chemistry. Composition & Physicochemical Properties Calcium stearate is a stearate salt used as a hydrophobic lubricant. It is compatible with common tablet excipient systems and is blended at low loadings to achieve ejection and flow benefits. Packaging and handling follow standard industrial excipient practice for powdered materials and are chosen to maintain dry storage conditions for bulk supplies.

Product Description

Formulation Application & Compatibility

Calcium stearate is applied primarily as a lubricant and glidant in tablet manufacturing. It reduces die adhesion and improves ejection, which helps maintain tablet integrity on high-speed presses. Formulation chemists use it where hydrophobic lubrication is desired without interfering with dissolution or effervescence chemistry. It is compatible with direct compression systems and common filler candidates.

This product is part of our Excipients range for formulation and QA teams seeking consistent bulk supply.

Country of Origin: India
Quality Assurance / Shelf Life: Batch COA available on shipment

Manufacturing Compliance & Documentation

Buyers typically request batch COA and basic QC parameters during incoming inspection to confirm assay and impurity profiles. Packaging is selected to protect against moisture uptake and to support handling during production runs. For procurement quotes, provide required annual volume and pack preference to align lead time and packing details.
