Description

Zinc stearate is a "zinc soap" that is widely used industrially. In this context, soap is used in its formal sense, a metal "salt" of a fatty acid. It is a white solid that repels water. It is insoluble in polar solvents such as alcohol and ether but soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., benzene and chlorinated hydrocarbons) when heated. It is the most powerful mold release agent among all metal soaps. It contains no electrolyte and has a hydrophobic effect. Its main application areas are the plastics and rubber industry where it is used as a releasing agent and lubricant which can be easily incorporated. Zinc carboxylates, e.g. basic zinc acetate, adopt complex formulas, and are not simply dicarboxylates of zinc. Instead the formula for most zinc carboxylates is Zn4O(O2CR)6, consisting of a Zn4O6+ core with carboxylate ligands spanning the edges.

Chemical Properties

Different sources of media describe the Chemical Properties of 557-05-1 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. white powder with fatty acid odour
2. Zinc stearate occurs as a fine, white, bulky, hydrophobic powder, free from grittiness and with a faint characteristic odor.

Application

It is widely used as a release agent for the production of many kinds of objects rubber, poly urethane, poly ester processing system, powder metallurgy. These applications exploit its "non-stick" properties . In cosmetics, zinc stearate is a lubricant and thickening to improve texture. It is an "activator" for rubber vulcanization by sulfur and accelerators. As discovered in the early days of vulcanization, zinc has a beneficial effect on the reaction of the sulfur with the polyolefin. The stearate is a form of zinc that is highly soluble in the nonpolar medium of the poly olefins. Being lipophilic, it functions as a phase transfer catalyst for the saponification of fats.

Production Methods

An aqueous solution of zinc sulfate is added to sodium stearate solution to precipitate zinc stearate. The zinc stearate is then washed with water and dried. Zinc stearate may also be prepared from stearic acid and zinc chloride.

Synthesis of well-dispersed ZnO nanomaterials by directly calcining zinc stearate

Guo, Guangsheng,Shi, Chen,Tao, Dongliang,Qian, Weizhong,Han, Dongmei

, p. 343 - 346 (2009)

Well-dispersed ZnO nanomaterials were synthesized by direct calcination of zinc stearate. Results from Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra and X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated both the decomposition degree of organic ligand and the purity of calci

Vibrational spectra and structures of zinc carboxylates II. Anhydrous zinc acetate and zinc stearate

Ishioka, Tsutomu,Shibata, Youko,Takahashi, Mizuki,Kanesaka, Isao

, p. 1811 - 1818 (1998)

A normal mode analysis was carried out for a monoclinic anhydrous zinc acetate crystal in which the acetate groups had bridging bidentate coordination forms, and spectral assignments were made. Based on the assignments, a relation between the coordination structure of the carboxylate groups around the zinc atom and the vibrational frequencies of the carboxylate rocking mode was found. This relation was applied to zinc stearate to determine its coordination form, and we found that zinc stearate had a bridging bidentate form.

Infrared and XAFS study on structure and transition behavior of zinc stearate.

Ishioka,Maeda,Watanabe,Kawauchi,Harada

, p. 1731 - 1737 (2000)

Structure and transition behavior of zinc(II) stearate crystal were investigated by infrared and XAFS spectroscopies. Structure of zinc stearate at room temperature was estimated as follows. From XAFS analysis, the coordination number of the carboxylate groups around the zinc atom was evaluated as 4 and the Zn-O distance as 1.95 A. Based on the infrared spectrum and a normal mode analysis, the conformation of the alkyl chain was confirmed as all-trans and the sub-cell packing was considered as parallel type, and also the coordination form of the carboxylate groups was determined as bridging bidentate type. As increasing temperature, zinc stearate has a solid liquid phase transition at 130 degrees C. At the transition, the alkyl chains goes into liquid like state as reported by Mesubi but the coordination structure was confirmed to be maintained.
