Application of Magnesium Silicate

  1. Anti-caking Agent: Magnesium Silicate is used in food processing to prevent clumping and ensure free-flowing properties in powdered products. Its high absorbency helps maintain product quality by reducing moisture content.
  2. Filler in Pharmaceuticals: It acts as an inert filler in tablets and capsules, providing bulk and stability without reacting with active ingredients. This enhances the consistency and shelf life of pharmaceutical products.
  3. Absorbent in Cosmetics: In personal care products, Magnesium Silicate is used to absorb excess oils and moisture, improving the texture and feel of cosmetics. It helps in achieving a matte finish in makeup formulations.
  4. Catalyst Support: Due to its high surface area, it serves as a support material for catalysts in chemical reactions, enhancing the efficiency and selectivity of industrial processes.
  5. Water Treatment: Magnesium Silicate is employed in water treatment processes to remove impurities and soften water, contributing to cleaner and safer water supplies.
