PRODUCT DETAILS
1. Product Description
Silicon dioxide for tablet formulation is a pharmaceutical-grade silicon dioxide exclusively designed for tablet manufacturing. It strictly complies with the global pharmacopoeial standards of ChP, USP and EP, and is produced via precision classification technology. Featuring excellent powder flowability, uniform dispersion and no impurity caking, it has strictly controlled heavy metal and microbial residues within pharmacopoeial limits. Optimized for core tableting compatibility, it integrates glidant, anti-adhesive and dispersing functions with stable physicochemical properties. It has no interaction with all active ingredients of tablets, does not affect disintegration and dissolution, and is suitable for large-scale tablet production in overseas pharmaceutical enterprises.

3. Application
It is suitable for the production of various tablets (conventional tablets, sustained-release tablets, dispersible tablets, enteric-coated tablets) in overseas pharmaceutical enterprises. As a special glidant and anti-adhesive agent, it solves the pain points such as die sticking, wall adhesion and large tablet weight variation during tableting, improves tableting efficiency and tablet smoothness, and optimizes the rate of disintegration and dissolution. It has good compatibility with tablet excipients and is widely used in the production of chemical drugs, generic drugs and Chinese patent medicine tablets.
4. Factory Advantages
We have an exclusive production line for silicon dioxide for tablet formulation, certified by GMP and ISO9001, and equipped with specialized testing equipment for tableting compatibility to strictly control batch-to-batch variation. Our products are exported to more than 30 countries, and we have established long-term cooperation with global pharmaceutical enterprises. We can optimize particle size according to demand to adapt to high-speed tableting equipment, with a delivery time of 5-10 days, and provide professional technical support.
5. Shipping & Packaging
- Standard Packaging: 10/20/25kg pharmaceutical-grade paper-plastic composite bags with an inner moisture-proof PE lining to prevent moisture absorption that affects tableting.
- Storage & Transportation Requirements: Store in a cool, ventilated and sealed environment; non-hazardous chemical, supporting global sea/air transportation and complying with international standards.
- Labeling Norms: Customizable multilingual labels, marked with tablet-specific attributes, pharmacopoeial standards, batch number and validity period.
6. Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can it be adapted to high-speed tableting equipment to prevent die sticking?
A: Fully adaptable. The powder's anti-adhesive performance and flowability are specially optimized, which can completely eliminate die sticking and wall adhesion and improve tableting efficiency.
Q: Will its addition affect tablet disintegration and drug release?
A: No. It has stable physicochemical properties, no interaction with drugs, and its dosage complies with pharmacopoeial limits, without affecting disintegration and drug efficacy.
