Magnesium Stearate
Magnesium stearate (C₃₆H₇₀MgO₄) is a fine white powder that is insoluble in water and widely used as a multifunctional additive in various industrial applications. It is the magnesium salt of stearic acid, offering excellent lubrication, anti-caking, and flow-enhancing properties in polymer, rubber, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical formulations. As a non-lead and heavy-metal-free additive, magnesium stearate provides a safer and environmentally friendly alternative for manufacturers seeking regulatory-compliant production processes.
