Double Decomposition Method

I. Product Introduction: 

Zinc stearate has molecular formula C36H70O4Zn, and molecular weight 632.33. It is white and fine powder, which will be decomposed when meeting strong acid. It has relative density 1.095, melting point 130℃, easy absorption of moisture, having special smell, combustible, insoluble in water or ethanol, but soluble in hot ordinary solvent and acid. It will become jelly after being heated and dissolved in organic solvent and cooled.

II. Production Principle: 

First produce sodium stearate, then react with sulfuric acid zinc, then produce zinc stearate product through rinsing, dehydrating and drying.

III. Product Purpose: 

Zinc stearate is PVC heat stabilization agent, which has small coloring property and good weather resistance in initial stage. It is mainly used in soft products, and non-toxic products with the assistance of calcium soap; and coordinated with barium soap to be used in vulcanization-resisting polluted products; and can be used as good lubricant of PVC, ABS and SAN resin, antistick agent of transparent products, lubricant, antistick agent and separant of phenolic aldehyde, amino and other thermosetting plastic, polyester reinforced plastics and rubber glue; and glazing agent of textile, flatting agent of paint and mixed material of cosmetics.

IV. Main Economic and Technological Indicators: 

Production of 1t zinc stearate requires: stearic acid 897kg; sodium hydroxide 151kg; and sulfuric acid zinc 498kg.

VI. Technical Service Method and Scope: 

Technical transfer. Taking responsibility for process flow design, supporting equipment of standard equipment, non-standard equipment manufacture design, equipment is plane layout design, equipment installation design, pipe network design, equipment installation guidance, equipment commissioning, production commissioning, training for production engineers, analysis staff and technicians, process operation specifications, raw material and product analysis method, and preparation of intermediate control analysis method; ensuring output, yield and quality to reach the standard; and undertaking turn-key projects.

Direct Method

I. Product Introduction: 

Zinc stearate has molecular formula C36H70O4Zn, and molecular weight 632.33. It is white and fine powder, which will be decomposed when meeting strong acid. It has relative density 1.095, melting point 130℃, easy absorption of moisture, having special smell, combustible, insoluble in water or ethanol, but soluble in hot ordinary solvent and acid. It will become jelly after being heated and dissolved in organic solvent and cooled.

II. Production Principle: 

Mix stearic acid with zinc carbonate salt and water, control certain temperature conditions, react and generate zinc stearate. Then produce zinc stearate product through dehydrating and drying.

III. Product Purpose: 

Zinc stearate is PVC heat stabilization agent, which has small coloring property and good weather resistance in initial stage. It is mainly used in soft products, and non-toxic products with the assistance of calcium soap; and coordinated with barium soap to be used in vulcanization-resisting polluted products; and can be used as good lubricant of PVC, ABS and SAN resin, antistick agent of transparent products, lubricant, antistick agent and separant of phenolic aldehyde, amino and other thermosetting plastic, polyester reinforced plastics and rubber glue; and glazing agent of textile, flatting agent of paint and mixed material of cosmetics.

IV. Technical Advancement: 

This process is new technology for preparing zinc stearate, its feature is direct synthesis without generating byproduct. The product does not need washing, production process consumes little energy without pollution, and the equipment investment is little.

V. Main Economic and Technological Indicators: 

Production of 1t zinc stearate requires: stearic acid 900 kg; and zinc carbonate salt 180kg.

VI. Production Scale and Equipment Investment: 

According to annual production of 1000t, the equipment investment is 300,000 Yuan.

VII. Technical Service Method and Scope: 

Technical transfer. Taking responsibility for process flow design, supporting equipment of standard equipment, non-standard equipment manufacture design, equipment is plane layout design, equipment installation design, pipe network design, equipment installation guidance, equipment commissioning, production commissioning, training for production engineers, analysis staff and technicians, process operation specifications, raw material and product analysis method, and preparation of intermediate control analysis method; ensuring output, yield and quality to reach the standard; and undertaking turn-key projects.
