At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we are dedicated to supplying premium pharmaceutical excipients that empower drug developers. Corn starch stands out as a remarkably versatile ingredient, underpinning many successful oral drug formulations due to its inherent multifunctional properties.

As a diluent, corn starch is fundamental for creating tablets with appropriate size and weight, especially when the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is potent and required in very small quantities. This ensures that each tablet is manageable for patients and that the manufacturing process yields consistent results. The utility of starch as tablet diluent cannot be overstated in achieving accurate dosing.

The role of corn starch as a disintegrant is equally critical. It facilitates the breakup of tablets in the digestive system, which is essential for the bioavailability of many drugs. By absorbing water and swelling, corn starch aids in the rapid disintegration, allowing the API to dissolve and be absorbed efficiently. This makes it a key component when considering corn starch for capsules and tablets that require fast-acting release.

Moreover, corn starch serves as an effective binder, particularly when used in the preparation of starch paste for wet granulation. This process agglomerates fine powder particles into larger granules, improving their flow properties and compressibility. This enhanced flowability is crucial for uniform tablet filling and subsequent compression, making it a reliable binder in tablet formulations.

NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers pharmaceutical-grade corn starch that adheres to the highest quality standards. Our commitment to excellence ensures that our clients receive excipients that perform consistently, contributing to the overall quality and efficacy of their pharmaceutical products. Whether you are formulating tablets, capsules, or granules, understanding the specific benefits of medicinal corn starch applications is key.
