High-performance lubricant for improved tableting performance

Alubra® sodium stearyl fumarate is a hydrophilic tablet binder for superior tablet performance. The fumarate increases the excipient’s melting temperature, enabling greater functionality at high press speeds. Meanwhile the stearate chain maintains the lubricity of the compound, supporting lower ejection forces and better tablet quality. In addition, the product is less susceptible to over-blending, facilitating more flexible process conditions and reduced waste as a result of batch failures.
