Magnesium stearate is a white substance that has two equivalents of stearate and one magnesium cation. It is safe for human consumption. It is often used as a filling agent in the manufacture of supplement capsules. This substance has lubricating properties and prevents ingredients from sticking to manufacturing equipment during the compression of chemical powders into capsules or tablets. Most pharmaceutical formulations include a certain amount of lubricant to improve their flowability and prevent their adhesion to the surfaces of processing equipment.
Advantages
Magnesium stearate is preferred as an external dry lubricant to reduce granule adhesion, or sticking, to tablet press machine parts including the scraper blade, tooling punches, and hopper powder feeder system. This anti-sticking function also reduces die-wall friction which is often the root cause of higher tablet ejection forces. When added to cohesive dry solid formulations, magnesium stearate is applicable as a glidant, or a flow aid. It works by reducing inter-particle friction between solid particles that would otherwise adhere to one another and slow down the product’s flow rate. In the dry granulation process, Magnesium stearate functions as a dry lubricant to improve powder feeding into roller compactors.

Application
Magnesium stearate is often used as an anti-adherent in the manufacture of medical tablets, capsules and powdersFor powder cosmetics ingredients, can improve adhesion and lubricity. In the creation of pressed candies, magnesium stearate acts as a release agent and it is used to bind sugar in hard candies such as mints.
