Factory Supply Glyceryl Behenate Cas 30233-64-8/77538-19-3 is a high - quality chemical product. Glyceryl Behenate is an ester of glycerol and behenic acid. Its chemical formula is C25H50O4. This product comes with the best price and is directly supplied from the factory, ensuring high purity and quality.
The appearance of Glyceryl Behenate is usually a white to off - white powder or flakes. It has a melting point typically in the range of 69 - 74°C. It is insoluble in water but soluble in some organic solvents such as chloroform and hot ethanol.
1. **Pharmaceutical Industry**: Glyceryl Behenate is widely used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule formulations. It helps in the smooth release of tablets from the molds during the production process. It also improves the flowability of the powder mixture, ensuring uniform filling of capsules. Moreover, it can act as a matrix former in controlled - release drug delivery systems, allowing for the slow and sustained release of the active pharmaceutical ingredients.
2. **Cosmetics Industry**: In cosmetics, it is used as an emollient and thickening agent. It can enhance the texture of creams, lotions, and lipsticks, providing a smooth and creamy feel. It also helps in preventing the separation of oil and water phases in emulsions, thus improving the stability of cosmetic products.
3. **Food Industry**: Although its use in food is more restricted compared to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, it can be used as a glazing agent and anti - caking agent in some food products, helping to maintain the quality and appearance of the food.
1. **In Pharmaceuticals**: When using Glyceryl Behenate in tablet production, it is usually added to the powder blend during the granulation or mixing process. The recommended concentration is typically between 0.5% - 3% of the total formulation weight. For capsule filling, it can be mixed with the active ingredients and other excipients to improve the flow properties before filling into capsules.
2. **In Cosmetics**: In the production of creams and lotions, Glyceryl Behenate is melted and added to the oil phase. It should be mixed thoroughly with other oil - soluble ingredients before emulsification with the water phase. The amount used can vary depending on the desired texture and consistency of the final product, usually ranging from 1% - 5%.
3. **In Food**: If used in food, it should be added according to the relevant food safety regulations. It can be mixed with other food ingredients during the processing stage to achieve the desired anti - caking or glazing effect.
1. **Pharmaceutical Case**: A pharmaceutical company was having issues with tablet sticking during the production of a new pain - relief tablet. By adding 1.5% Glyceryl Behenate to the tablet formulation, the problem of sticking was completely resolved. The tablets were released smoothly from the molds, and the production efficiency increased significantly. Also, in a dissolution test, the tablets showed a more consistent and controlled release of the active ingredient over time.
2. **Cosmetic Case**: A cosmetics brand wanted to improve the texture of their moisturizing lotion. They added 3% Glyceryl Behenate to the oil phase of the formulation. The resulting lotion had a smoother and creamier texture. Consumers reported that the lotion was easier to spread and had a more luxurious feel on the skin. The stability of the lotion also improved, and there was no visible separation of the oil and water phases even after long - term storage.
3. **Food Case**: A confectionery manufacturer was facing problems with the clumping of their powdered sugar product. By adding a small amount (0.2%) of Glyceryl Behenate as an anti - caking agent during the mixing process, the powdered sugar remained free - flowing. This improved the packaging process and the overall appearance of the product on the shelves.
