• Uses: It is used medicinally as an antacid. It can neutralize the stomach acid and protect the ulcer with slow and lasting effects, up to 4~5 hours. It does not produce the gas to protect the gastric mucosa, and it has the function of light diarrhea and adsorption. It can be used to treat stomach, duodenal ulcer and relieve symptoms caused by hyperacidity. It can be used as antioxidant, deodorizer, decolorizer, TLC adsorbent, column chromatography adsorbent and so. It can also be used in ceramics and rubber industry. Food grade products are used as anti-caking agent, filter aid and film agent. According to regulations formulated by FAO / WHO (1984), the maximum amount of anti-caking agent used in powdered dairy products ( milk powder, cream powder, high fat milk powder and half cream powder ) is 10 g / kg. Industrial odor absorbent, decolorizing agent, antioxidant, medicine (antacid).
