Abstract

Zinc stearate (Zinc distearate) is a fine white soft and muctuous odourless bulky powder, molecular weight 632. Its outstanding characteristic is the extremely small particle size of the top quality material, which can be less than one micron in diameter, giving it a high specific surface e.g. the order of 25,000 sq.cm. per gram.
