Acid value, iodine value, and saponification value.

Limits for heavy metals and sulfated ash.

Microbial limits for pharmaceutical manufacturing applications.

3. Key Advantages of Glyceryl Behenate

Outstanding Multi-functional Excipient: Performs exceptionally well as a lubricant in tablet compression, a lipid matrix-forming agent for sustained-release formulations, and a taste-masking excipient.

High Safety and Compatibility: Entirely devoid of metal ions, causing no adverse interactions with sensitive active ingredients (a significant advantage over Magnesium Stearate).

Optimization of the Tablet Compression Process: Exhibits excellent compressibility, does not compromise tablet hardness, and does not adversely affect the disintegration time of the tablet when utilized at appropriate ratios.

International Standard Quality Profile: Facilitates pharmaceutical manufacturers in seamlessly completing drug registration dossiers and fulfilling rigorous validation requirements.

4. Applications of Glyceryl Behenate

In Pharmaceuticals

  • Tablets and Hard Capsules: Employed as a lubricant at low concentrations (typically 1% - 3%), particularly highly suitable for direct compression formulations.
  • Controlled-Release Formulations: Acts as a lipid matrix to precisely control and prolong the release time of active pharmaceutical ingredients within the gastrointestinal tract.
  • Film Coating / Taste Masking: Applied in hot-melt coating techniques to effectively mask the bitter or unpleasant taste of active substances.

In Cosmetics and Personal Care

  • Creams, Ointments, and Lotions: Functions as a thickening agent, film-forming agent, and viscosity modifier, substantially enhancing product texture and imparting a smooth, soft feel to the skin.
