Calcium Stearate FN

Calcium Stearate is the calcium salt of distilled, hydrogenated fatty acids. Calcium stearate is used as a catalyst neutralizer and/or lubricant in polypropylenes. Calcium stearate does not melt, but reaches a plastic phase at normal processing temperatures and sometimes does not disperse as well as might be expected. Recommended for application in adhesives, phenolic resins in molded articles and in closures with sealing gaskets for food containers.
