Description
Report Description
Stearic acid is also called octadecanoic acid, which is basically one of the most common
long-chain fatty acids. Stearic acid has extensive applications in many fields, for instance,
cosmetic industry, rubber industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry and biomedical
science industry. Although, stearic is generally derived from palm oil, it is also derived
from others sources such as corn, which is a waxy solid that is almost insoluble in water.
Since, stearic acid occurs in many animal and vegetable fats and oils. However, animal fat
is richer than vegetable fat by 15%. One of the most popular uses of stearic acid is in the
production of candles to harden the wax and strengthen the candle. Stearic acid is also
commonly used in the production of soap. It give shampoos a pearly color and also helps
to make harden soaps. Furthermore, preventing oxidization is another key use of stearic
acid. It is also used to coat metal powders such as iron and aluminum, used in fireworks
that allow them to be stored for longer period of time. It is also used in some metal
polishes to prevent the oxidation, to produce magnesium stearate and rust that can occur
on metal parts of tools.
