However, as the different polymorphs of silica differ in their hazards to human health, it is essential, to distinguish carefully between crystalline silica and synthetic amorphous silica (crystalline-free). This website uses cookies. Its usefulness stems from three key attributes: Colloidal silicon dioxide is used as a carrier for liquids and semi-liquids or as free-flow agent in powdered products (pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, salts, and foods), particularly for substances that attract water molecules (hygroscopic) or cake, so that they flow better. This is further supported by the available worker exposure data that continues to show there is no evidence of health hazards to workers from the manufacture and use of SAS products. Unlike dry milling processes, which lead to API crystallites with a strong tendency to agglomerate, the crystallites absorbed on mesoporous silica are stabilized and separated from each other by carrier-API interactions.

Finally, aggregates of Colloidal silicon dioxide occupy and fill voids, which eliminates irregularities on the particle surfaces, reducing particle-particle entanglements. However, they should not be used for drug delivery by inhalation or injection because of the risks of tissue reactions or the formation of granulomas. https://doi.org/10.1002/jbm.820251107, Knowles BR, Wagner P, Maclaughlin S et al. Compared with traditional wet granulation, MADG does not involve the use of heat to dry granules and involves fewer process steps. Colloidal silicon dioxide is approved for use in pharmaceutical products as an excipient (oral, topical products and topical sprays but not for inhalation). Dissolution Technol 18:1528.

Langmuir 24:87728778. Therefore, the mean diameter of the resulting synthetic amorphous silica particles, as used, is typically in the micron range and well above 100 nm. It is not advisable to pre-mix Colloidal silica with lubricants, such as magnesium stearate or sodium stearyl fumarate. It is a versatile material that is used in plastics to improve their wear resistance, and has been used to replace microplastics. In numerous studies, it has been shown that in the bulk phase (normal existence), the primary particles in Colloidal silica do not exist as individual/discrete nanoparticles but are fused together to form aggregates, which subsequently form agglomerates. The order of addition of the ingredients and dispersion time is not critical. Colloidal silicon dioxide is used in tablet coating processes due to its ability to improve throughput and economics. Chem Soc Rev 46:74387468. (2020) Effect of particle functionalization and solution properties on the adsorption of bovine serum albumin and lysozyme onto silica nanoparticles. How to Use Colloidal Silica to Thicken Oils. Colloidal silicon dioxide improves powder flow by counteracting the forces behind particle cohesion. For example, 50nm particles can be concentrated to greater than 50 wt% solids while 10nm particles can only be concentrated to approximately 30 wt% solids before the suspension becomes too unstable.

If magnesium stearate is used, colloidal silica should be mixed with the other ingredients first before adding in the lubricant. Finally, colloidal silicon dioxide is inert toward most active drug ingredients and excipients, so incompatibilities are extremely rare. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.micromeso.2010.11.013, Mosquera J, Garca I, Henriksen-Lacey M et al.

Colloidal silicon dioxide grades find utility in liquid formulations on account of their viscosity-modifying properties as well as their ability to prevent particle settling in disperse (suspensions) systems. Surprisingly, when the sustainability of Colloidal silicon dioxide was assessed by the Excipients Forum, it achieved a score of 43 out of 100 on their Sustainable Chemistry scheme. The long history of manufacture and use, coupled with data regarding the size distribution of the material, substantiates the widespread belief that colloidal silicon dioxide has a low potential for adverse health effects. The pyrogenic method for producing Silica was invented in 1941 by Harry Klopfer, a scientist at Degussa (now part of Evonik AG).

These changes, while not necessarily affecting the silica content, density, refractive index, colour, or amorphous form, do impact three key parameters, i.e: As a result, different commercial grades of colloidal silicon dioxide, such as AEROSIL (Evonik), Cab-O-Sil (Cabot Corporation) and Wacker HDK (Wacker-Chemie GmbH) may differ in these parameters. . Densified grades are not used to thicken oils because they form larger, more stable agglomerates that are difficult to disperse.
