Manganese Stearate

Manganese stearate is a manganese salt of stearic acid, produced through the reaction of stearic acid with manganese compounds. It appears as a fine light pink to pale brown powder and is insoluble in water. With its long-chain fatty acid structure combined with manganese ions, manganese stearate provides unique catalytic, stabilizing, and lubricating properties.
These characteristics make manganese stearate widely used in rubber, plastics, coatings, paints, inks, and specialty industrial formulations, particularly where curing, drying, and oxidation control are required.
At Evergreen Chemical Company Thailand, we supply premium-grade manganese stearate powder manufactured to meet the requirements of industrial and specialty applications. Produced under strict quality control systems and compliant with international standards such as ISO and REACH, our manganese stearate ensures consistent performance, purity, and batch-to-batch reliability.

Manganese Stearate Properties and Features
1. Catalyst & Drier Additive
Manganese stearate is widely used as a catalyst and drier in coatings, paints, and inks. It accelerates oxidative curing and drying processes, improving production efficiency and reducing drying time.
2. Lubricant & Processing Aid
As a metal soap, manganese stearate functions as an effective lubricant and processing aid in plastics and rubber. It reduces friction during processing, improves material flow, and enhances surface finish.
3. Oxidation & Thermal Control
Manganese stearate helps regulate oxidation reactions in polymer and rubber systems, contributing to improved thermal stability and controlled aging performance.
4. Dispersing & Anti-Agglomeration Agent
Manganese stearate improves dispersion of pigments and fillers in coatings and compound systems. It helps prevent agglomeration, ensuring uniform distribution and consistent product quality.
5. Hydrophobic & Water-Resistant Properties
Due to its hydrophobic nature, manganese stearate enhances moisture resistance in industrial formulations, supporting long-term durability and performance.
Manganese Stearate Applications
Manganese Stearate is widely utilized in Plastic Additives and Lubricant Additives, where it functions as a lubricant, processing aid, and catalytic agent. It enhances curing performance in paints and coatings, improves mixing efficiency and mold release in rubber applications, supports better flow and reduced friction in plastic processing, and contributes to stability and controlled performance in adhesives, sealants, and specialty industrial formulations.
1. Paints, Coatings & Inks
Manganese stearate is commonly used as a drying agent and catalyst in alkyd paints, industrial coatings, and printing inks. It improves curing speed, film hardness, and coating performance.
2. Rubber Industry
In rubber compounding, manganese stearate functions as a lubricant and process aid, improving mixing efficiency, mold release, and surface quality of finished rubber products.
3. Plastics & Polymer Processing
Manganese stearate is used as a lubricant and additive in plastics to improve flow properties, reduce processing friction, and enhance product consistency.
4. Adhesives & Sealants
In adhesives and sealants, manganese stearate contributes to improved dispersion, processing stability, and controlled curing behavior.
5. Specialty Industrial Formulations
Manganese stearate is also applied in specialty chemical formulations where catalytic activity, lubrication, and moisture resistance are required.
