OMNISIL 244
OMNISIL 244
Description:
OMNISIL 244 is known for its excellent absorption capacity and consistent particle size distribution. Its porous nature allows it to effectively interact with liquids, making it highly suitable for use as a carrier, anti-caking agent, moisture scavenger, and flow enhancer.
Applications Of OMNISIL 244
- Glidant for free-flowing powders.
- Carrier for liquids, oils, active ingredients.
- Tabletting aid for improved hardness and reduced friability.
- Disintegration and drug release enhancement.
- Suspension and gel formation applications
- Moisture absorber / scavenger & product stabilizer.
Compliance : IP/BP/USP-NF/Ph.EP
Performance Characteristics
OMNISIL 244 offers a combination of high internal porosity, controlled particle size, and optimized bulk density. This results in:
- Better blending and uniform distribution.
- alongside higher moisture absorption capacity.
- Improved drug delivery performance.
- Lower contamination & smoother processing.
