Slightly soluble in cold ethanol, Soluble in acetone, benzene, ethyl ether, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, sulfur dioxide, chloroform, hot ethanol, toluene, amyl acetate, etc.. 6. Specification: Industrial 1 7. Appearance: Pure is white slightly shiny, wax crystals flake Detail: Usage: Mainly for the production of stearate: sodium stearate, magnesium stearate calcium stearate Lead stearate stearic acid stearic acid cadmium iron aluminum stearate potassium stearate Widely produced for making cosmetics, plastic cold plasticizers, release agents, stabilizers, surfactants, rubber vulcanization accelerator, waterproof agent, polishing agent, metal soap, metal mineral flotation agents, softeners, pharmaceuticals and other organic chemicals. In addition, the solvent can be used as oil-soluble pigment, crayon transfer lubricant, wax polish, stearic acid glycerol emulsifiers. Production process: Mainly by the industrial production of oil hydrolysis. Stearic acid with glycerol in the form of fat found in animal imitation, oil and some vegetable oils, these oils that have to stearic acid by hydrolysis.
