ALUBRA PG 100

Description

Alubra PG 100 is a fine, white to off-white powder used as a hydrophilic lubricant in capsule and tablet formulations. The fumarate moiety of Alubra increases its melting temperature, which allows for greater functionality at high press speeds.

High performance lubricant that brings more to the tablet.

Alubra® sodium stearyl fumarate from IFF Pharma Solutions is a comparatively hydrophilic lubricant widely used in capsule and tablet formulations. The fumarate moiety of Alubra® increases its melting temperature, which allows for greater functionality at high press speeds while the stearate chain maintains the lubricity of the compound and supports low ejection forces. Alubra® is also less susceptible to over-blending contributing to more flexible process conditions and reduced waste due to over blended batch failures.
