About Aluminium monostearate
Want to know what Aluminium monostearate is used for? Aluminium monostearate is a salt of stearic acid and aluminium with the molecular formula Al(OH)2C18H35O2. Also known as dihydroxyaluminium or dihydroxy(stearato)aluminium, it is used to form gels in the packaging of pharmaceuticals and in the preparation of colors for cosmetics. While considered safe for use, extensive usage may result in aluminum accumulation.

Aluminium monostearate is a type of Emulsifiers
Emulsifiers are a crucial category of pharmaceutical active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) used in the formulation of various pharmaceutical products. They play a vital role in achieving stable and uniform emulsions, which are essential for the production of creams, lotions, and other topical formulations.
Emulsifiers are surface-active agents that possess both hydrophilic (water-loving) and lipophilic (oil-loving) properties. These unique characteristics enable them to form a bridge between water and oil phases, thereby stabilizing the emulsion system. By reducing interfacial tension, emulsifiers facilitate the dispersion of immiscible liquids, resulting in a homogeneous mixture.
The primary function of emulsifiers in pharmaceutical formulations is to enhance the stability, appearance, and texture of the final product. They prevent phase separation, coalescence, and sedimentation, ensuring uniform distribution of active ingredients. Moreover, emulsifiers improve drug delivery by aiding in the solubilization of lipophilic drugs and promoting their absorption through the skin.
In addition to their emulsifying properties, these APIs may also possess other beneficial characteristics such as antimicrobial activity or skin-conditioning properties. This makes them versatile ingredients used in various pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications.
Commonly used emulsifiers in the pharmaceutical industry include polysorbates, sorbitan esters, and fatty alcohols. Each emulsifier has its own set of advantages and limitations, making it crucial for formulators to carefully select the appropriate emulsifier based on the specific requirements of the formulation.
Overall, emulsifiers are essential pharmaceutical APIs that contribute to the stability and efficacy of topical formulations. Their multifunctional properties make them indispensable ingredients in the development of a wide range of pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
