Zinc Stearate

Main Applications:

• Plastics and Rubber Industry:
  • Used as a release agent, zinc stearate facilitates the extraction of plastic and rubber molded parts. Its lubricating properties allow better dispersion of pigments and additives, thus improving the quality and homogeneity of finished products.
• Polyurethane and Polyester Industry:
  • As a release agent and lubricant, it is integrated into polyurethane foam formulations and polyester composites to reduce friction and facilitate material handling.
• Metallurgy:
  • Appreciated for its anti-adhesive properties, zinc stearate is used in metal treatment processes to prevent residue accumulation and facilitate equipment cleaning.
• Soap and Cleaning Products Manufacturing:
  • It serves as a stabilizer and hardener in soap and detergent formulations, increasing their shelf life and improving their texture.
• Other Uses:
  • Zinc stearate is also used in the manufacture of glues, paper, and cardboard, where it plays a role as a lubricant and finishing agent.

Available Forms:

• Powder
• Packaging: 12.5 kg bag

Origin and Certification:

• GMO-free product
• REACH compliance
• Differences with other types of zinc stearates:

• Zinc Stearate:

This type is often modified to provide specific characteristics, such as increased heat resistance or enhanced non-stick properties. Zinc stearate N, on the other hand, is a more standard version, mainly used for its lubricating and non-stick properties.

Zinc Stearate is a versatile product, suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Its lubricating and anti-adhesive properties make it a preferred choice for the plastic, rubber, polyurethane, and metalworking industries. It is differentiated from other variants by its composition and standard specifications, offering an effective solution for common industrial needs.
