- Zinc stearate occurs as a fine,
white, bulky, hydrophobic powder, free from grittiness and with a faint
characteristic odor
- Zinc
stearate is primarily used in pharmaceutical formulations as
a lubricant in tablet and capsule manufacture at concentrations up to
1.5% w/w. It has also been used as a thickening and opacifying agent in
cosmetic and pharmaceutical creams, and as a dusting powder -
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.
