Zinc stearate emulsion and its application

What is zinc stearate emulsion?

Zinc stearate is an organic substance with the chemical formula C36H70O4Zn. It is a white powder and is insoluble in water. Mainly used as lubricant and release agent for styrene resin, phenolic resin and amino resin. At the same time, it also functions as a vulcanization activator and softener in rubber.

The aqueous emulsion of zinc stearate is called zinc stearate emulsion. It has a wide range of uses and can be used as a mold release agent, color retention agent, lubricant, mold release agent, etc.

Characteristics of Stearate Emulsion

Insoluble in water, soluble in hot organic solvents, such as ethanol, benzene, toluene, turpentine, etc.; it decomposes into stearic acid and corresponding salts when exposed to acid; there is a fire hazard under dry conditions, with a spontaneous ignition point of 900 ℃; hygroscopic

Overview of zinc stearate emulsion

Water-based zinc stearate is mainly used to replace filter paper, sandpaper super coating, thermal paper sensitizer, rubber release agent, water-based paint functional additives, etc. Since zinc stearate is insoluble in water, it works through the dispersion of particles in water. The size of the system used will directly affect the dispersion effect of the active ingredients. Water-based zinc stearate mainly uses zinc stearate special additives, sandpaper polishing paint, thermal paper sensitizer functional additives, rubber and water-based paint release agents, etc.

Because it is insoluble in water, it disperses and interacts with particles in the user's system. Therefore, the larger youth breakthrough agent directly affects the dispersion effect of the active ingredients. The common water-based acid resin zinc acid particles have large particle size and small particle size, which is not easy to disperse. The micronization of zinc stearate is difficult to achieve with technology, and zinc stearate is also a substance that is difficult to emulsify. Therefore, zinc stearate is generally used as an injection in the paper industry.

Application of zinc stearate emulsion

Zinc stearate emulsion can be used as a heat stabilizer; lubricant; grease; initiator; thickener. For example, it can generally be used as a heat stabilizer for PVC resin. Used for general industrial transparent products; can be used with calcium soap. Can be used for non-toxic products.

Zinc stearate is commonly used as a release agent, heat stabilizer and lubricant in the plastics, polyolefin, polystyrene and rubber industries. Zinc stearate is also used as a polishing additive in wood coatings (lacquer). In cosmetics, zinc stearate is a lubricant and thickener that can improve texture. Zinc stearate emulsion has a wide range of uses, including rubber, plastics, coatings, inks, paints, thermal paper, cosmetics and other industries.

1. Application in rubber industry: release agent, release agent, active agent, etc.

2. Application in the plastic industry: internal release agent
