Lithium Stearate
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Lithium Stearate is a premium metallic soap renowned for its exceptional thermal stability and superior water resistance in industrial applications. Our High-Purity Grade is specifically designed for the manufacture of high-performance lubricating greases.
Unlike other metallic soaps, it maintains its structural integrity at high operating temperatures, preventing the breakdown of lubricants in heavy-duty machinery. It features a fine particle size, allowing for easy dispersion in both mineral and synthetic base oils.
In the polymer industry, it serves as a highly effective internal lubricant and heat stabilizer for specialized plastics. Its unique chemical properties provide a low coefficient of friction, making it indispensable for high-precision manufacturing and automotive components.
APPLICATIONS
- Lithium Greases: The primary thickening agent for multi-purpose automotive and industrial greases, offering high-temperature durability.
- Plastic Processing: Acts as a lubricant and stabilizer for nylon and other engineering plastics during high-temperature extrusion.
- Powder Metallurgy: Used as a lubricant in the pressing of metal powders to ensure uniform density and easy part release.
SAFETY & RISKS
Classified as a non-hazardous solid; however, dust may cause mechanical irritation. Always use safety glasses, protective gloves, and avoid dust accumulation to minimize inhalation risks.
PACKAGING
