What It Is

Sodium stearyl fumarate (SSF) is a white, waxy powder used as an excipient and lubricant in medicines and supplements. It is the sodium salt of fumaric acid and stearic acid, two natural compounds.

Chemical Properties

Chemical Properties Molecular Formula: C₂₂H₃₉NaO₄
Synonyms: SSF, Sodium fumarate stearyl ester

Why We Use It

Sodium stearyl fumarate acts as a natural lubricant, ensuring uniform compression of powdered supplements. Unlike magnesium stearate, it does not slow down disintegration, making it ideal for fast-dissolving hydrogen tablets.

Where to Find It

Sodium stearyl fumarate is a synthetic compound not found in nature. It is derived from natural fatty acids and fumaric acid. Commercially, it is used in pharmaceutical tablets and nutritional supplements.

The Wellness Extract Edge

We use pharma-grade sodium stearyl fumarate, selected for its non-reactive, non-toxic, and disintegration-friendly properties.
