Features & Benefits
- Key Features
Aluminum Stearate Code 1032 is produced from a high-quality, animal-derived fatty acid for applications requiring a relatively fine, medium-density gellant, thickening agent, lubricant, or processing aid with good handling and blending characteristics.
- Product Performance
- Aluminum Stearate Code 1032 functions as a rheology modifier and gelling agent in a variety of oils and waxes used in a range of applications, including greases, wire drawing lubricants, defoamers, crayons, and candle waxes.
- Provides good lubrication and mold release properties in polyamide and other thermoplastic applications and mold release for thermosets.
- Functions as thixotropic and thickening agent in the production of certain varnishes and lacquers.
