Tyloxapol is a non-ionic liquid polymer of the alkyl aryl polyether alcohol type, acting as a highly effective surfactant and wetting agent in the pharmaceutical industry.
The material is manufactured by reputable international standard pharmaceutical excipient manufacturers. With high safety and low toxicity, Tyloxapol is specially designed to improve the solubility of poorly soluble drugs while reducing surface tension in solutions and suspensions, especially for formulations requiring high mildness to mucous membranes.
2. Information on Tyloxapol raw material
Material Name: Tyloxapol
Material Group: Pharmaceutical Excipients / Surfactants, wetting agents, solubilizers.
Chemical Composition: Polymer of 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol with formaldehyde and oxirane.
Form: Viscous liquid, pale yellow to amber, with a mild odor.
Solubility: Highly soluble in water and many organic solvents.
Quality Standards: Meets current international Pharmacopoeia standards (USP/Ph.Eur).
The special material is strictly controlled for:
Free Impurities: Ensures the level of impurities (such as ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane) is kept to the strictest minimum for absolute safety in direct respiratory or ophthalmic formulations.
pH and Surface Tension: Strictly controlled to optimize the wetting ability of biological tissue surfaces and maintain the stability of emulsion/suspension systems.
3. Advantages of Tyloxapol raw material
Excellent surface activity: Significantly reduces surface tension, helping the drug solution to spread, adhere, and penetrate better on physiological mucous membranes (e.g., ocular mucosa, respiratory mucous membranes).
High stability and compatibility: Its non-ionic nature gives Tyloxapol excellent compatibility with various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipient systems without causing precipitation or incompatibility.
Superior biological safety: Causes very little irritation to mucous membranes compared to many other surfactants, making it safe for particularly sensitive tissue areas.
Reasonable cost - Stable supply: Supplied by leading partners, providing a high-quality excipient solution at a competitive cost for pharmaceutical plants.
4. Applications of Tyloxapol
In pharmaceuticals (Core applications):
Eye drops (Ophthalmology): Used as a wetting and dispersing agent in ophthalmic suspensions or solutions, helping drug particles to distribute evenly, preventing agglomeration, and soothing the eyes to reduce irritation.
Respiratory and inhalation medications: Acts as a mucolytic agent in aerosol solutions used to treat respiratory diseases, while also enhancing the solubility of bronchodilators.
Injections and emulsions: Acts as an emulsifier or co-emulsifier in some intravenous lipid emulsion drug delivery systems.
In medical devices and healthcare:
Applied in contact lens cleaning and hygiene solutions due to its gentle cleansing ability and effective removal of lipid/protein deposits on the lens surface.
