PRIMARY Description: A white, very fine powder of low bulk density; unctuous and readily adheres to the skin; odour, very faint, of stearic acid. Solubility: Practically insoluble in water, ethanol (~750 g/l) TS, and ether R; slightly soluble in hot ethanol (~750 g/l) TS. Category: Tablet and capsule lubricant; glidant; antiadherent. Storage: Magnesium stearate should be kept in a well-closed container. Definition: Magnesium stearate consists mainly of magnesium stearate (C17H35CO2)2Mg with variable proportions of magnesiumpalmitate (C15H31CO2)2Mg and magnesium oleate (C17H33CO2)2Mg. Magnesium stearate contains not less than 3.8% and not more than the equivalent of 5.8% of Mg, calculated with reference tothe dried substance.
