Product Advantages

Reduced Over-Lubrication

Unlike magnesium stearate, sodium stearyl fumarate exhibits a lower tendency for over-lubrication, meaning it is less likely to negatively impact tablet disintegration and dissolution profiles, a key aspect of sodium stearyl fumarate disintegration time.

Enhanced API Compatibility

The inert nature of SSF leads to high sodium stearyl fumarate API compatibility, reducing the risk of chemical interactions and degradation products, crucial for stable drug formulation.

Improved Tablet Properties

Experience superior tablet hardness at equivalent compression forces and a less pronounced impact on disintegration times, contributing to the overall quality of your solid dosage forms.

Key Applications

Tablet Lubrication

As a premier tablet lubricant, SSF ensures smooth tablet ejection and prevents die wall friction, vital for efficient tablet manufacturing.

Direct Compression

Its excellent flow properties make sodium stearyl fumarate ideal for direct compression, simplifying manufacturing processes and improving tablet quality.

Effervescent Formulations

SSF can enhance the appearance of effervescent solutions, providing a cleaner and more appealing final product.

Enteric Coating

This versatile excipient also functions as an enteric coating material, contributing to targeted drug delivery systems.
