More Information
Details
Talc Powder EP Grade is a high-purity, pharmaceutical-grade excipient that complies with European Pharmacopoeia (EP) standards. It is a hydrated magnesium silicate known for its soft texture, excellent lubricating properties, and high chemical stability. Talc is widely used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries due to its inert nature, moisture resistance, and ability to enhance product flowability.
In the pharmaceutical sector, Talc Powder EP Grade is primarily used as a glidant, lubricant, and anti-caking agent in tablet and capsule formulations. It improves the flow properties of powders, prevents ingredient clumping, and ensures smooth tablet compression. Additionally, talc helps prevent tablets from sticking to punches and dies during manufacturing, leading to improved production efficiency and consistent tablet quality.
Beyond pharmaceuticals, Talc Powder EP Grade is also used in topical formulations, skincare products, and cosmetic applications. It acts as an absorbent, moisture barrier, and texture enhancer in medicated powders, ointments, and creams. Its high purity and compliance with EP standards make it a preferred choice for manufacturers seeking safe and effective excipients in pharmaceutical and personal care formulations.
