Details
INCI Name:Zinc Stearate
BLIT Chemical Zinc Stearate is White powder or particles, In soluble in water, ethyl alcohol, and ether; slightly soluble in benzene; it will decompose into stearic acid and its corresponding zinc salt when meeting strong acid.
Zinc Stearate is a zinc salt of stearic acid, commonly used in a variety of industries due to its multifunctional properties. It is known for its lubricating, hydrophobic, and stabilizing qualities, which make it a popular choice in cosmetics, plastics, rubber, and pharmaceutical formulations. In cosmetics, Zinc Stearate acts as a thickening agent and texture enhancer, providing a smooth, matte finish to powders and creams.

Application:
Cosmetics and Personal Care: Zinc Stearate is widely used in face powders, blushes, eye shadows, and foundations as a texturizing agent to provide a soft, silky feel and to improve the adherence and spreadability of the product. It also acts as a dry lubricant in creams and lotions, enhancing the application experience.
Plastics Industry: Used as a heat stabilizer and release agent in the manufacturing of PVC and other plastics, Zinc Stearate helps prevent sticking and improves the processability of materials during molding and extrusion processes.
Rubber Industry: Serves as a mold release agent and activator in rubber vulcanization, helping to prevent rubber products from sticking to molds and improving the curing process.
Pharmaceuticals: Acts as a glidant in tablet formulations, enhancing the flow properties of powders and preventing ingredients from clumping, which is essential for uniform tablet formation.
Zinc Stearate can be used as brightener for textiles as well as flatting agent for paints and enamels.
Package:
20kg/bag,400kg/ton bag,8.0mt/20’FCL;
Usage Guidelines:
Cosmetic Formulations: In powder products like face powders and blushes, use Zinc Stearate at concentrations between 3% to 10% to enhance texture, spreadability, and adherence. For creams and lotions, add 1% to 3% to improve the product’s glide and provide a smooth, matte finish.
Plastics Manufacturing: Incorporate Zinc Stearate at 0.1% to 1% as a heat stabilizer and release agent in PVC and other plastic compounds. This prevents sticking during molding and extrusion and improves the processability and finish of the final product.
Rubber Processing: Use Zinc Stearate at 1% to 5% in rubber formulations to act as a mold release agent and process aid. It helps reduce sticking to molds, enhances the flow properties of the rubber compound, and supports uniform vulcanization.
Pharmaceutical Applications: In tablet manufacturing, use Zinc Stearate as a glidant at 0.25% to 1% to improve powder flowability and prevent clumping, ensuring uniform tablet size and weight.
Handling and Safety: Always use Zinc Stearate in a well-ventilated area and wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and masks, to minimize inhalation and skin contact. Store it in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and direct heat, to maintain its quality and effectiveness over time.
