Product Description
Sodium Starchglycolate is a highly effective disintegrant used in pharmaceutical tablet formulations. Derived from starch, this cross-linked polymer ensures rapid tablet disintegration upon contact with water, improving drug dissolution and bioavailability. Its neutral pH and compatibility with most active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) make it a preferred choice for formulators.
Whether you’re a student working on a research project or a pharmaceutical professional developing new drug formulations, Sodium Starchglycolate from eqipped delivers consistent performance. Its fine particle size and high swelling capacity ensure uniform distribution in tablets, preventing capping or lamination issues during compression.
At eqipped, we source Sodium Starchglycolate from trusted manufacturers like CDH to guarantee purity and reliability. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality checks to meet pharmaceutical standards, so you can focus on your experiments without worrying about material inconsistencies.

Key Applications
Sodium Starchglycolate is widely used in:
- Pharmaceutical tablet manufacturing as a superdisintegrant
- Effervescent tablet formulations for quick dissolution
- Nutraceutical and dietary supplement production
- Academic research on drug delivery systems
Why Sodium Starchglycolate?
Unlike traditional disintegrants, Sodium Starchglycolate offers superior performance due to its:
- High water absorption capacity, leading to rapid tablet breakdown
- Chemical stability, ensuring compatibility with most APIs
- Non-toxic and non-allergenic properties, making it safe for oral formulations
- Cost-effectiveness compared to synthetic alternatives
For researchers and students, this means fewer failed batches and more reproducible results. Pharmaceutical manufacturers benefit from its ability to reduce disintegration time, improving patient compliance.
Handling and Storage
Store Sodium Starchglycolate in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect its performance. Always use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling fine powders to avoid inhalation.
Safety Information
While Sodium Starchglycolate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS), it is recommended to:
- Avoid direct contact with eyes and skin
- Use in a well-ventilated area to minimize dust exposure
- Follow good laboratory practices (GLP) when handling
FAQs
What is the role of Sodium Starchglycolate in tablets?
It acts as a disintegrant, helping tablets break down quickly in the digestive tract to release the active ingredient efficiently.
