It is GRAS, or generally recognized as safe, making it acceptable for pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic products.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn pharmaceutical applications, silicon dioxide works as glidant by reducing the friction between a dry mixture's particles; allowing them to flow smoothly and disperse evenly. This improves the powder flow and distribution of fine powders that often move poorly through tablet presses and capsule filler systems of all speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt works in dry formulations by absorbing trace quantities of moisture that can otherwise cause particles to clump or stick to manufacturing equipment. This is useful when using moisture sensitive APIs, or active pharmaceutical ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany on-shelf antibiotics are kept shelf-stable by silicon dioxide due to its moisture-absorbing abilities. This function is why it can also be found in dry seasonings, spices, and cosmetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWorks as glidant to increase product flow and blend uniformity in tablet and capsule formulations. This allows for a more even dispersion of your ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse as an anti-caking agent to reduce sticking and picking on tablets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLFA's Silica is vegetarian, kosher, and halal certified.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DrinkHive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45090263302320,"sku":"B0798Q6FTX","price":307.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/5067\/6912\/files\/51WD9a11h8L._SX522.jpg?v=1778128583","url":"https:\/\/drinkhive1.com\/products\/silicon-dioxide-anticaking-agent-5-kg-11-lb-food-grade-silica-powder-moisture-absorbing-glidant-for-tablet-press-amp-capsule-filler-pill-mix","provider":"DrinkHive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
