POTASSIUM STEARATE OPK-1000
Odor: characteristic Use: Potassium Stearate OPK-1000 is a Potassium Stearate that consists predominantly of the potassium salts of saturated C16 and C18 fatty acids. Potassium Stearate OPK-1000 finds application as a primary cleansing agent in various products for hair, face and body and as a co-emulsifier in lotions, balms, assorted color cosmetics, and hair styling waxes. Potassium Stearate OPK-1000 may be used as a lubricant and/or stabilizer in polyolefin, PVC and acrylic rubber manufacture. It is also an emulsifier in the polymerization of butadiene and polymerizable compounds as acrylonitrile, styrene and acrylic esters, yielding synthetic rubbers. Potassium stearate is also a catalyst in the manufacture of mono- & diglycerides and the component that makes many glyceryl esters "self-emulsifying." |
