  • Applications

    Sodium Stearyl Fumarate (CAS 4070-80-8) is a long-chain fatty ester salt used primarily as a lubricant and slip agent in cosmetics and personal care; it also serves as a lubricant/processing aid in pharmaceutical manufacturing (aids flow of powders and tablet formation), as a processing aid and lubricant in polymers and plastics, as a slip/leveling additive in coatings and inks to improve film formation and uniformity, and may be used as an additive in adhesives to improve flow and handling during application.
