Description

Magnesium Adipate is a white, crystalline salt of magnesium and adipic acid, widely recognized for its role as a functional additive and stabilizer. This compound matters for its ability to act as a neutralizing agent, pH buffer, and source of bioavailable magnesium in critical formulations. Industries requiring precise mineral fortification, polymer stabilization, or controlled-release mechanisms need this reliable chemical. Its consistent quality makes it a preferred choice for manufacturers seeking to enhance product performance and shelf-life.

Application

• Pharmaceutical & Nutraceutical Excipient: Used as a pH-adjusting agent, tablet disintegrant, and a source of magnesium in dietary supplements.
• Polymer & Plastic Additive: Functions as a heat stabilizer and acid scavenger in polyamide (nylon) and polyester production processes.
• Food Industry Additive: Employed as an anti-caking agent, firming agent, and nutrient fortifier in various food products.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Serves as a buffering agent and opacifier in creams, lotions, and deodorant formulations.
• Chemical Synthesis Intermediate: Acts as a precursor or catalyst in organic synthesis and specialty chemical manufacturing.
• Flame Retardant Synergist: Used in combination with other compounds to improve flame-retardant properties in materials.

Quality Control

Our Magnesium Adipate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets high-purity standards suitable for pharmaceutical, food, and industrial applications. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with key parameters including assay, heavy metals, and loss on drying. Our commitment to GMP and ISO guidelines ensures traceability and consistent batch-to-batch reliability for our global clients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the material must be stored in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). The storage area should have low humidity and be well-ventilated. Keep the container tightly sealed immediately after use to prevent absorption of moisture and carbon dioxide from the air.
