Calcium Stearate

Calcium stearate is obtained from the reaction of stearic acid and lime. It is a fine powder, white and silky to the touch, with the following properties:

  • It is very stable under high temperature conditions
  • It is non-toxic and is even used as a food additive, E470
  • It is highly resistant to water and has water-repellent properties
  • It serves as a lubricant, stabilizer and thickener in various processes.

You can buy 50% liquid calcium stearate emulsion, which makes even distribution, dosage and handling easier. We also have a dust-free/granulated product which is very suitable for pneumatic conveyance; it has a more precise dose and is cleaner.

Application:

Calcium Stearate is recognized as physiologically safe, and is insoluble in most solvents. Compared to waxes, it has a relatively high softening point, and consequently, do not become greasy at higher temperatures. It is used in food, medical, cosmetics, plastic and rubber industry as lubricating agent, emulsifying agent, stabilizing agent, release agent, promoter and basic material of cosmetics.
