Excipients/Raw Materials
Acetic acid glacial is widely used as a pharmaceutical excipient in various formulations as a pH modifier and preservative.
Benzene sulphonic acid is used as acid catalyst and pH modifier in various pharma products.
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) is the most widely used filler in polymer formulations. As a filler, calcium carbonate allows cost reduction and improved mechanical properties
Croscarmellose sodium is widely used as an additive in pharmaceutical and non-pharmaceutical industry; in particular, it is used in oral pharmaceutical formulations as a disintegrant for capsules, tablets and granules
Diisopropanolamine is used as neutralizer and pH modifier in topical pharma formulations
Dimethyl formamide is used as solublier and solvent in pharma industry
Dimethyl sulfoxide is used as solublier and solvent in pharma industry
EDTA Disodium salt is used as chelating agent in pharmaceutical formulations and industry
Fumaric acid is used as pH modifier and stabilizer in pharma industry
Glycerine is used as s a sweetening agent (0.6 times the sweetness of sucrose), a solvent, lubricant, antimicrobial, humectant, and preservative
Glycine is an important excipient in lyophilized biologics that serve as a buffering and bulking agent. It acts as a crystallizing solute and stabilizing agent to prevent protein inactivation during the freeze-drying process
Arginine is of particular interest as an excipient used to suppress protein aggregation, with several groups working on the elucidation of its mechanism of action
L-methionine has been used as a stabilizing or antioxidant formulation excipient to protect the active pharmaceutical ingredient in a number of approved parenterally-administered pharmaceuticals
Lactose is commonly used as a diluent/binder in order to produce tablets of sufficient hardness whilst maintaining good disintegration properties.
Magnesium stearate is an additive that is most frequently used as a lubricant
Mannitol (C6H8(OH)6) is used in pharmaceutical products as a sweeting agent, tablet and capsule diluent, excipient for chewable tablets, a tonicity agent, and as a vehicle (bulking agent) for lyophilized preparations
Meglumine is used in drug formulation to increase aqueous solubility of lipophilic drugs and improve their absorption
Methylparaben is one of the most common parabens. You can find it as part of a paraben mix in most cosmetic products, where it prevents germ growth
MCC is the preferred excipient for use in tablets, capsules, granules, pellets and spheres as diluent and binder
N Methyl pyrrolidone is used as solublier and solvent in pharma industry
N,N-Dimethyl acetamide is used as solublier and solvent in pharma industry
PEG6000 used as an inactive ingredient in the pharmaceutical industry as a solvent, plasticizer, surfactant
PEG8000 used as an inactive ingredient in the pharmaceutical industry as a solvent, plasticizer, surfactant
Polysorbate 20 is used an excipient that stabilizes emulsions and suspensions in pharmaceutical products and lubricant in ophthalmic solutions. It is used as wetting agent and surfactant
Polysorbate 80 is used an excipient that stabilizes emulsions and suspensions in pharmaceutical products and lubricant in ophthalmic solutions. It is used as wetting agent and surfactant
PVP K30 is used as tablet binder and pore former in tablet formulation
Methylparaben is one of the most common parabens. You can find it as part of a paraben mix in most cosmetic products, where it prevents germ growth
Sodium bicarbonate is used a buffering agent in antacids, dialysis solutions and effervescent tablets
Sodium carbonate is used a buffering agent in antacids, dialysis solutions and effervescent tablets
Sodium starch glycolate is used as a pharmaceutical grade dissolution excipient for tablets and capsules. Sodium starch glycolate absorbs water rapidly, resulting in swelling which leads to rapid disintegration of tablets and granules
Sodium stearyl fumarate is an inert, hydrophilic, tablet lubricant, useful in situations where other lubricating agents (i.e., magnesium stearate) fail to provide tablets of adequate stability, hardness, content uniformity, disintegration and dissolution rate
Sodium sulphite is used as antioxidant and preservative in pharma industry
Tartaric acid and derivatives are used widely in pharmaceutical manufacturing. One example is that tartaric acid has been used to make effervescent salts
Zinc chloride is used as antimicrobial preservative in pharma industry
