Specification:Applications:
Zinc Stearate is hugely applied as slipping agents, lubricants, heat-stabilizers, accelerators and mold releasing agents.
Zinc stearate is a "zinc soap" that is widely used industrially. In this context, soap is used in its formal sense, a metal "salt" of a fatty acid
It is widely used as a release agent for the production of many kinds of objects rubber, polyurethane, polyester processing system, powder metallurgy. These applications exploit its "non-stick" properties. In cosmetics, zinc stearate is a lubricant and thickening to improve texture.
Key Features of Zinc StearateOur Zinc Stearate boasts high purity, excellent stability, and reliable performance for pharmaceutical manufacturing. Its white powder form, coupled with its inert nature, makes it an ideal choice for tablet processing. The product is easy to handle and remains stable under typical storage conditions.
Pharmaceutical ApplicationsIn the pharmaceutical industry, Zinc Stearate is primarily used as a lubricant and release agent. Its purity (>99%) ensures safety and effectiveness in sensitive drug formulations, facilitating smooth tablet ejection from molds without affecting the quality or integrity of the final product.
