Categories: Film Former, Thickener, Texturing agent, Dispersant
Performance and Applications:
Polyhydroxystearic Acid is a polymer of Hydroxystearic Acid. Acid Value7-10mgKOH/g
A yellow viscous liquid thickener that imparts consistency and emolliency to lotions, creams, and color cosmetics. It is an excellent oil-gelling agent and also serves as a film-former, emulsion stabilizer, sunscreen enhancer, and plasticizer, making it ideal for creating creamier textures and improving emulsion stability.
Use: Dispersant for pigments and titanium dioxide
Recommended usage: 1-10%.
Polyhydroxystearic acid additive is a functional product playing a vital role in multiple industrial fields. Its unique chemical properties and superior performance make it an ideal choice for many industries.
Polyhydroxystearic acid additive possesses a unique molecular structure containing multiple hydroxyl groups and long-chain fatty acid structures. This endows it with excellent chemical stability, enabling it to maintain its properties in various chemical environments and resisting adverse reactions with other substances, providing a solid foundation for its application in complex industrial environments.
Dispersion and Thickening Functions
In the coatings and inks industry, polyhydroxystearic acid additive exhibits strong dispersing capabilities. It can effectively reduce the surface tension between pigments and fillers, ensuring their uniform dispersion in the system and preventing agglomeration and sedimentation, thereby improving the color uniformity and stability of coatings and inks. Simultaneously, it can also be used as a thickener, appropriately increasing the viscosity of the system, improving the rheological properties of coatings and inks, and making them easier to apply and coat.
Lubrication and Anti-wear Properties
In the field of lubricating oils and greases, polyhydroxystearic acid additive is an important component. It forms a lubricating film on metal surfaces, reducing friction and wear between metals and extending equipment lifespan. Furthermore, it enhances the lubricant's demulsibility and oxidation stability, ensuring proper functioning even under harsh operating conditions.
Excellent Compatibility
It exhibits excellent compatibility, mixing well with a variety of resins, solvents, and additives. This allows for easy addition to different formulation systems without affecting the performance of the original product, facilitating product upgrades and improvements.
