Stearic Acid is a triple-pressed, vegetable-derived C18 fatty acid that functions as a thickener, hardener and co-emulsifier in anhydrous and emulsified products. It adds pearliness and creamy lather to bar soaps while helping lotions maintain viscosity and stability.
The high purity (> 98 %) ensures low odour and consistent saponification values, making it ideal for both cold-process soap making and hot-pour cosmetics.
Key Benefits:
- Increases hardness and longevity of soap bars
- Contributes creamy, stable lather
- Opacifies and thickens emulsions
- Cost-effective vegetable source
Common Applications:
- Cold-process & melt-&-pour soaps
- Stick deodorants and antiperspirants
