It is practically insoluble in water, organic solvents, dilute acid and solutions of alkali hydroxides. pH is 4.0 - 7.5 for a 20% w/v aqueous slurry. It is used in oral and topical pharmaceutical formulations as adsorbent. Oral doses of up to about 24 g of kaolin have been administered in the treatment of diarrhea. The adsorbent properties of kaolin may interfere with the absorption of other orally administered drugs. Light kaolin contains suitable dispersing agent. Kaolin may contain Clostridium and bacillus spores. Mixtures containing kaolin should be freshly prepared unless kaolin has been sterilised.Benzoic acid - is widely used in cosmetics, foods, and pharmaceuticals as an antimicrobial preservative. Benzoic acid solutions contain 1 - 5% benzoic acid. Greatest antimicrobial activity is seen at pH values between 2.5 - 4.5. A 0.1% w/v aqueous solution of benzoic acid has been reported as being stable for at least 8 weeks when stored at room temperature. Benzoic acid may dissociate into benzoate anion (-) which can adsorb onto drug particles in suspensions to affect the physical stability of the product.Concentrated chloroform water and chloroform water contain 10% v/v and 0.25% v/v of chloroform in water respectively.Ref: APF, Martindale, BP, Pharmaceutical excipients
