What Is Stearic Acid 50?

Stearic Acid 50 is a commercial saturated fatty-acid grade for industrial formulation work. This offer contains C16 palmitic acid and C18 stearic acid rather than high-purity stearic acid alone. CAS 57-11-4 identifies the named stearic component; the mixture composition is shown separately.

The specification controls C16 fatty acid at 50–60%, C18 at 38–45%, acid value at 205–210 mg KOH/g and freezing range at 54–57°C. Colour, moisture, iodine value and inorganic-acid limits support procurement and incoming inspection. The trade grade number does not replace the actual fatty-acid distribution.

Rubber formulation development should evaluate the fatty acid as part of the complete activator, cure and filler system. Plastics processing-aid and release applications require trials for compatibility, lubrication, migration and finished-part performance. Evaluate loading and ageing in the intended polymer and process.

Soap, coating and selected personal-care formulations need application-specific quality and regulatory review. This industrial listing does not establish food or pharmaceutical grade, source certification or a finished-product approval. Keep granules dry and control dust; hot or molten material needs suitable thermal protection.

BUYER FAQ

Stearic Acid 50 FAQ

Which Stearic Acid 50 grade should I choose?

This is a commercial C16/C18 mixture with C16 50–60% and C18 38–45%, not high-purity stearic acid. Compare acid value, freezing range and fatty-acid distribution against your cure, processing and finished-product requirements.

Can I request a Stearic Acid 50 sample for testing?

Yes. We can provide free samples for testing. Tell us the application, the grade you need and the tests you plan to run.

How is Stearic Acid 50 packed and shipped?

Standard packing is 25 kg lined plastic or paper bags. The usual MOQ is 1,000 kg, with a lead time of approximately 14 days from order confirmation. It ships as non-dangerous goods.
