Monosodium Glycine Carbonate
Industrial Applications
Monosodium Glycine Carbonate is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a buffering agent and effervescent component in oral dosage forms. It helps maintain pH stability in formulations and reacts with acids to generate carbon dioxide, providing the characteristic “fizz” in effervescent tablets and powders. Its ability to regulate acidity and enhance dissolution makes it valuable in products designed for rapid dispersion and improved patient experience.
Physical Properties
Monosodium Glycine Carbonate is a white, crystalline inorganic-organic salt composed of glycine, sodium, and carbonate ions. It is highly reactive with acids, releasing carbon dioxide gas upon contact. The compound provides effective buffering capacity and contributes to effervescence in formulations. It is water-soluble, odorless, and stable under normal storage conditions.
