Sodium Carboxymethyl Starch: Your Partner for Advanced Tablet Disintegration and Stability
In the pursuit of creating effective and stable pharmaceutical products, the role of specialized excipients cannot be overstated. Sodium Carboxymethyl Starch (SCMS), also recognized as Sodium Starch Glycolate (SSG) with CAS No. 9063-38-1, is a prime example of such an excipient, offering significant advantages in tablet formulations and liquid preparations. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to supply high-quality SCMS, a compound essential for enhancing drug delivery and product stability.
The foremost advantage of SCMS lies in its exceptional performance as a tablet disintegrant. As a sodium carboxymethyl starch tablet disintegrant, it possesses a unique ability to rapidly swell upon hydration. This swelling action creates internal pressure within the tablet matrix, leading to its quick fragmentation. This efficient disintegration is critical for ensuring that active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are readily released and absorbed in the body, thereby maximizing therapeutic efficacy. Formulations requiring fast dissolution benefit immensely from the properties of SCMS.
Beyond its disintegration capabilities, SCMS plays a vital role in improving the physical attributes of tablets. It aids in improve tablet hardness disintegrant properties, allowing for the creation of tablets that are durable enough for handling and packaging, while still ensuring rapid disintegration. This balance is crucial for producing high-quality pharmaceutical products that meet both mechanical strength and rapid drug release requirements. The ability to enhance tablet hardness without impeding disintegration is a key reason for its widespread use.
The versatility of SCMS is further demonstrated by its utility as a suspension aid for liquid preparations. In liquid dosage forms, SCMS acts as a suspending agent, preventing the sedimentation of insoluble particles and ensuring a uniform distribution of the API. This is particularly important for maintaining the efficacy and consistency of liquid medications, especially in formulations for vulnerable patient populations. The role of sodium starch glycolate pharmaceutical excipient in stabilizing suspensions is highly valued.
NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to providing a medicine grade starch ether that adheres to stringent international pharmacopeial standards. Our Sodium Carboxymethyl Starch is a trusted chemical reagent for pharmaceutical manufacturers seeking reliability and superior performance.
