- Used in a wide variety of applications
- Improves the flow behaviour and storage stability of powder
- Reduces caking, lumping, and bridging
- Converts liquid active substances or solutions into flowable powders
- Non-deleterious, odourless and tasteless
- Convenient for taste masking
- Absorbs of liquid APIs may allow for slower or delayed drug release
- As a tablet coating - higher pH acts as a buffer for stomach acid, high absorptive capacity protects tablets from moisture uptake
- As a glidant - provides more even flow into the tablet press and reduces tablet weight variation
