Aluminium Stearate or monoaluminum stearate is the aluminium salt of stearic acid, supplied as a fine white hydrophobic powder. Aluminum(III) stearate is an valuable thickener and gelling agent, capable of forming stable gels with oils and non-polar solvents. This property makes it functional as a capability in paints, varnishes, greases, printing inks, and cosmetics. Mono- and distearate grades are for thickening more viscous oils and creating stiffer gels. Distearate grade is generally for thickening paints, inks, and greases. Tristearate is for thickening lower-viscosity oils for deep effectiveness in paints and enamels. Aluminium salt also enhances water resistance and suspension stability in formulations. Also known as octadecanoic acid by the aluminium stearate supplier and manufacturer. We are the leading, trusted aluminium stearate supplier worldwide and in the United States, with reliable lead times and global supply capability.

Aluminium Stearate is not a single compound but a mix of mono-, di-, and tri-stearates of aluminum, which can be tailored for different applications.
Unlike sodium stearate, which gels in water, Aluminium Stearate is insoluble in water but dispersible in oils & organic solvents when heated.
Acts as a thickener, stabilizer, and water-repellent additive.
Yes export ready with COA, TDS, SDS, regulatory certificates.
