About 12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid

We are Supplier, Exporter and Contract Manufacturer.
Technical profile of 12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid, a high-purity raw chemical material supplied by Triveni Chemicals for industrial manufacturing and laboratory synthesis.


12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid is a long-chain fatty acid derivative with the chemical formula C18H36O3 and molecular weight 300.46 g/mol. It appears as a white to off-white waxy solid. It is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents and oils. It is stable under normal conditions and has excellent thickening and gelling properties in non-polar systems.
In terms of uses and applications, 12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid is widely used in the grease, lubricant, and cosmetics industries. It is a key raw material for producing lithium and calcium complex greases due to its ability to form stable gel structures. In the cosmetic industry, it is used in creams, ointments, lipsticks, and personal care formulations as a structuring and thickening agent. It is also used in the paints, coatings, and ink industries to improve rheology and texture. Additionally, it finds application in polymers, surfactants, and specialty chemical formulations requiring viscosity control and stability.


Key Applications in Industry

12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid is valued for its excellent thickening and emulsifying capabilities, making it an essential component in formulations for cosmetics, polymers, and lubricants. It enhances the consistency of products and offers reliable performance in various synthetic and industrial processes, including as a plasticizer and additive in coatings.


Physical & Chemical Properties

This material is characterized by its white to off-white color, non-volatile nature, and absence of nitrogen content. It possesses chemical and thermal resistance, remaining effective at temperatures of up to 170C, with a density of 0.94 g/cm3. Its high acid and saponification values contribute to its effectiveness in multiple industrial applications.


Storage & Handling Guidelines

To maintain its high purity and shelf life, 12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Containers must be tightly sealed to prevent contamination and preserve the material's quality over two years from manufacturing.
