Description

Zinc stearate is used as a release agent for the manufacturing of rubber, polyurethane and polyester processing. It is a lubricant and thickening agent in cosmetic industry. It plays a vital role as an activator for rubber vulcanization. It acts as a phase transfer catalyst in the saponification of fats due to its lipophilic character. It is an active component in fanning powder, which is utilized to decrease the friction between cards.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
