DESCRIPTION

Magnesium stearate is a mixture composed mainly of magnesium stearate and magnesium palmitate.

Properties and uses: It is used as an excipient in cosmetics, adding body to creams and acting as a physical barrier against chemical irritants. It is also used as a lubricant in tablet manufacturing and as an excipient for capsule filling.

Practical formulation guide
Usage level: As a lubricant in tablets and capsules, at 0.25–5 %.
How to use and incorporate: Dry-blend with the other powders or disperse in the water phase with good stirring. In powder masks, hydrate with water, hydrosol or vinegar at the time of use.
Formulation tips: Notes: It may reduce the absorption of some actives, so it should not be used in excessive proportions;
do not use if the active is very hygroscopic; in that case, a blend of lactose + talc + magnesium stearate can be used instead.
  • Clays and powders absorb water and oil: adjust the proportion of liquids in the formula.
  • In water-based products, the powder adds microbial load: use a preservative.
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Incompatibilities: Strong acids, alkalis, iron salts, oxidizing agents, acetylsalicylic acid, vitamins and alkaloid salts.
Storage: In tightly closed containers. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.
Precautions: Avoid inhaling the powder.
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
