Stearic acid 50/50 (vegetable) in pearls (5 kg)

Product information "Stearic acid 50/50 (vegetable) in pearls (5 kg)"

For the food sector, for cosmetic and chemical-technical applications.

Application

Stearic acid 50, vegetable is produced by saponification of vegetable oils. During the manufacturing process, the stearic acid is processed in appropriate separation processes, such as hydrolysis and subsequent distillation, to produce a usable product. This is the unsaturated C-18 cut, which is subsequently used in many cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications (skin and body care, e.g. shaving foam). Stearic acid is also used as a base for candles, which, unlike the paraffin usually used, burn CO2-neutrally. Stearic acid is authorised in the European Union as a food additive E570 (fatty acids) and can be used in foodstuffs without restriction. In technical chemistry, stearic acid is used as an additive in rubber compounds or other plastics.
CAS Number: 57-11-4
Synonyms: n-Octadecansäure, Talgsäure, Lactarsäure, Stearophansäure, Stearin, Octadecansäure

Hazard Statements

Keine Kennzeichnung erforderlich.

Safety Instructions

Keine Kennzeichnung erforderlich. Weitere Informationen Bei Stearinsäure handelt es sich um eine, wenn auch sehr schwache Säure. Dennoch hat Stearinsäure eine korrosive Wirkung auf Metalle. Die Bezeichnung Stear ist griechisch und bedeutet Talg bzw. Schmalz. Es deutet an, aus welchem Ursprung Stearinsäure früher und auch heute noch gewonnen wurde und wird. Deutlich effektiver ist allerdings die industielle Gewinnung von Stearinsäure aus Pflanzenölen, da diese bis zu 70% C-18 enthalten können.

Storage

Nur im Originalbehälter an einem kühlen, gut gelüfteten Ort aufbewahren. Behälter verschlossen halten, wenn dieser nicht in Gebrauch ist. Direkte Sonneneinstrahlung vermeiden.

This was my first order at chemiekontor. There are no drugstores near my place of residence that still need to be clarified. However, the phone call with an employee was promising so far. Delivery was super fast!

Super satisfied and happy to order again at Chemiekontor. Uncomplicated and fast goods, yes well box from GIs reworked, but that would be complaining at a high level, so everything chic! Thumbs up.
