Anti-Caking
1- Magnesium Stearate Product Code : E 470
Explanation : Magnesium Stearate is produced by reacting sodium stearate with magnesium salts or by treating magnesium oxide with stearic acid. It has a slightly oily texture and thus prevents the drug powders and supplements from sticking. When Magnesium Stearate is added it ensures that everything flows smoothly and mixes evenly.
Usage areas : Magnesium Stearate used in medicine, food, cosmetics, polymer, paper, rubber, paint industry; It is used in many functions such as gelling agent, stabilizer, anti-adhesion, emulsifier and plasticizer in these sectors. It is used to change the texture of foods, to press supplements and medicines into tablets and capsules. It is used as an anti-adhesion in the production of chewing gum. While producing face, body and baby products in the cosmetics sector, this chemical compound, which is the main component, adds smoothness to the skin due to its flawless particle sizes. Magnesium Stearate; hydrophobic agent in the production of fire extinguishers, wax and grease; antistatic agent in the textile and dry cleaning industry; It is used as a lubricant in graphic pen production. Magnesium Stearate, which is used for its thickener, suspending feature and smooth structure to paints, varnishes and lacquers It is used as a hardener in enamel, varnish and lighting candles.
2- Calcium Carbonate Product Code : E 170
Explanation : Calcium carbonate is a type of chemical compound popularly known as limestone. Calcium carbonate; It is found in ancient rocks, marble, limestone, bones and teeth of living things, as well as in the exoskeleton of crustaceans, corals, muscles, snails and protozoa. Among the rocks in which calcium carbonate is found in nature, aragonite, calcite, vaterite, chalk, limestone, marble and travertine are the most widely known. Hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid is used to detect the presence of calcium carbonate on a rock. Calcium carbonate has almost the same properties as other carbonate types. Carbon dioxide gas is released when exposed to strong acids.
Usage areas : It is used as an additive in the food field. Calcium carbonate is also found in soy milk, baking soda, toothpaste, dessert mixes, dough and wine. It is also used as a food supplement and base material for antacid, phosphate binder or medical tablets. It is also used as an abrasive and brightener in toothpaste. Calcium carbonate is the active ingredient in agricultural lime and is used in animal feed. Environmental cleaning is also used through water and waste treatment. Calcium carbonate as it is for industrial purposes is used in mining or quarrying. The building material industry is also used as a raw material for the production of cement and quicklime or limestone for building and road construction, as a compound used in the steel industry, and as a mineral fertilizer. It is also used as a mineral filler or pigment for many industrial applications such as paper, paint, plaster, plastic, carpet.
3- Tr Calcium Phosphate Product Code : E 341
Explanation :Tr Calcium Phosphate consists of 3 calcium atoms and one phosphate group. It is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, crystalline and powdered chemical compound. Tr Calcium Phosphate, easily soluble in dilute Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) and Nitric Acid, has a moderate solubility in water and is also insoluble in Alcohols and Acetic Acid. As the temperature increases, its solubility decreases and as a result, precipitation occurs. It is not reactive, it is a stable compound. It is similar to the calcium phosphate compound. It is used as technical grade and food grade.
Usage areas : Tr Calcium Phosphate is broken down in the food used to form positive and negative ions. With the chelating effect of this chemical, dairy products, condiments etc. It prevents materials such as acidic or basic. In the food industry; It is used as a clouding agent, as an acidity regulator, as a moisturizing agent in baking soda, sugar and table salt. It is also used as a baking agent in bread and bakery products, as a calcium and phosphorus supplement in fruit juices and cereal products, as a mineral salt source in cheese production, as an anti-caking agent in spices and powdered beverages, as an opacity and softness in foods and beverages with reduced fat such as soy milk. . It is used as a stabilizer in the production of some of the oils used in frying. It is used in vegan foods as a mineral source. Tricalcium Phosphate is one of many different types of nutritional supplement products. Tr Calcium Phosphate is used as a phosphate source. The phosphorus contained in it is an extremely necessary element for plants. It is used in the manufacture of fertilizers for this. Tr Calcium Phosphate is also used in porcelain houseware, pot making and ceramic coating processes. It is used to minimize damage and malfunctions in dental implants. It is used as bone grafting material. It is also known to stop bleeding.
