Calcium Silicate is a safe and chemically inert inorganic compound, widely applied as a state-of-the-art anti-caking and glidant excipient in the manufacturing industry. Thanks to its specific porous network structure and extremely large surface area, this material possesses an outstanding ability to absorb moisture, liquids, and essential oils at several times its initial weight.
The biggest difference of Calcium Silicate is its ability to fully retain its dry, porous, and free-flowing powder characteristics even after absorbing a large amount of liquid. This not only protects sensitive active ingredients from degradation caused by moisture but also completely resolves local sticking issues during large-batch mixing. As a result, Calcium Silicate helps factories comprehensively optimize powder rheology, increase tableting and encapsulation speeds, enhance production efficiency, and ensure the long-term stability of finished pharmaceutical and food products.
2. Information about Calcium Silicate material
Material name: Calcium Silicate
Material group: Pharmaceutical excipients / Anti-caking agent, glidant.
Function: Anti-caking agent, glidant, absorbent.
Chemical composition: Compound of calcium and silicon.
Material form: Fine white powder, porous, odorless, tasteless.
Solubility: Insoluble in water and ethanol.
The material is strictly controlled for:
Absorption capacity: Controlled to optimize the absorption of liquid active ingredients or essential oils into powder form.
Particle size: Ensures a fine and uniform distribution, enhancing the flowability of powder mixtures for tableting or encapsulation.
3. Advantages of the material
Outstanding anti-caking: Effectively prevents the adhesion of powder particles, keeping the mixture porous, especially in high-humidity environments.
Optimized flowability: Significantly improves powder fluidity, supporting the tableting and encapsulation processes to achieve high speed and weight uniformity.
High absorption capacity: Can absorb a large amount of essential oils, vitamins, or liquid extracts without losing the properties of dry powder.
Reasonable cost - Stable supply: Provides high-quality excipient solutions at competitive costs for manufacturing plants.
4. Applications of Calcium Silicate
In pharmaceuticals and health supplements (Key applications)
Tablet and capsule production: Used as an anti-caking agent and glidant in solid formulations.
Carrier for liquid active ingredients: Used to convert liquid components into free-flowing powders for easy incorporation into tablets or hard capsules.
In food and cosmetics
Food: Applied as an anti-caking agent in table salt, spices, and dry powder mixtures.
Cosmetics: Used in makeup powders thanks to its ability to absorb excess oil and create a smooth finish.
