zinc stearate emulsion has many applications, including rubber, plastics, coatings, inks, paints, thermal paper and cosmetics. It can be used as a release agent, color retention agent and lubricant.
Generally speaking, zinc stearate is a white powder that is insoluble in water and has a slight fatty odor. It is produced from stearic acid by melting or heating it at high temperature.
It is widely used as a release agent, heat stabilizer and lubricant in the plastics, polyolefin and rubber industries. It is also used in the wood coatings (lacquer) industry as a polishing additive. It can be used to improve texture and abrasion resistance, and it is a good thickening agent for wood coatings.
The preparation method is as follows: selecting deionized water, add it into the dispersion machine, warm up to 60
After the emulsification is completed, water-based defoaming agents are added to quickly eliminate bubbles in the emulsion. Zinc stearate is then added and mixed until it is completely emulsified, then ground to a particle size of 0.5 to 1 micron.
This dispersion is characterized by being stable, low in viscosity and uniform, having ideal enhancing and lubricating effects. It can be stored for a long time without changing quality, does not appear phenomena of flocculation stratification, has no foam during the production process and is ideal in product quality.
