Magnesium stearate remains a solid, light white powder when kept at room temperature. This chemical compound is an FDA-approved inactive ingredient, existing in salt form. It can be derived either from animal or plant sources. It has a characteristic taste and a faint odor.

Magnesium stearate is used primarily as a release agent and as a component or lubricant in the production of  pharmaceutical products, beauty products, and food items. Its applications exploit its softness, insolubility in many solvents, and low toxicity. 

With Magnesium Stearate, Sen Viet is about to launch the new grade series for Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics, planning in the early of 2024.
