Application
Methyl stearate is plasticizer and stabilizer in plastic industry. It mainly manufacture polymers, which can increase the hardness and stability of plastics. The main products are plastic products such as PVC, polypropylene, polyethylene, and polystyrene.
Methyl stearate can be a thickener and rheological agent for inks, which can improve the viscosity and fluidity of ink.
In the printing and dyeing industries, it can also increase the dispersibility of pigments and reduce their viscosity.
In the cosmetics industry, methyl stearate is an emulsifier and thickener to improve the texture and stability of cosmetics.
It also has use in pharmaceutical, spice, and adhesive.
