Zinc stearate

Description:

Zinc stearate is a chemical compound with the formula Zn(C18H35O2)2, commonly used as a lubricant, release agent, and stabilizer in various applications. It appears as a white, powdery solid and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as benzene and chloroform. Zinc stearate is derived from the reaction of zinc oxide with stearic acid, a fatty acid. It exhibits properties such as low friction, thermal stability, and resistance to moisture, making it valuable in the production of plastics, rubber, and cosmetics. Additionally, it serves as an anti-caking agent in powdered products. In terms of safety, zinc stearate is generally considered non-toxic, but like many fine powders, it can pose inhalation risks if proper handling precautions are not taken. Its applications extend to pharmaceuticals, where it may be used as an excipient in tablet formulations. Overall, zinc stearate is a versatile compound with significant industrial and commercial importance.
