Physical Description
WHITE FINE SOFT POWDER.
Zinc stearate is a white, hydrophobic powder with a slight, characteristic odor. Mp: 130 °C. Density: 1.1 g cm-3. Insoluble in water, ethyl alcohol and diethyl ether. Soluble in acids. Non-toxic. In technical grades, the percentage of zinc may vary according to the intended use. Products with less than the theoretical amount of zinc are more acidic.
| Melting Point | 130 | °C |
| Soluble | benzene | |
| Insoluble | water, alcohol and ether | |
| Density | 1.095 | g/cu cm |
Decomposition
Zinc stearate decomposes on burning producing irritating and toxic fumes including zinc oxide.
Therapeutic Uses
Zinc stearate is a mild antiseptic and astringent, and it has been used as a local soothing application for inflammatory and irritating skin diseases, it also is used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule manufacture at concentrations up to 1.5% w/w and it is being used in dental cement.
