Zinc Laurate produces better physical properties with low natural blends.
Acting as a plasticizer in natural rubber, Zinc Laurate offers a higher degree of solubility in rubber than stearic acid, therefore less blooming. 
Less blooming resulting in better tack properties, such as in truck tire and tank lining compounds.
Zinc Laurate is used in Paints, varnishes.

DESCRIPTION

Zinc Laurate is registered under the REACH Regulation and is manufactured in and / or imported to the European Economic Area, at ≥ 1 000 to < 10 000 tonnes per annum.
Zinc Laurate is used by consumers, in articles, by professional workers (widespread uses), in formulation or re-packing, at industrial sites and in manufacturing.


Zinc Laurate is used as a chemical additive used in heat stabilizers for PVC compounds.
Zinc Laurate is a white powder with a slightly waxy odor. 
Zinc Laurate is used as a dry binder in the personal care and cosmetics industry. 
The strong cohesive properties of dry binders make them easier to disperse allowing the formulator to decrease the amount of lipids. 
They are also hydrophobic, and simplify the pressing of powders.


Zinc Laurate is one of numerous organometallic compounds manufactured. 
Organometallics are useful reagents, catalysts, and precursor materials with applications in thin film deposition, industrial chemistry, pharmaceuticals, LED manufacturing, and others. 
Most materials can be produced in high and ultra high purity forms (99%, 99.9%, 99.99%, 99.999%, and higher) and to many standard grades when applicable including Mil Spec (military grade), ACS, Reagent and Technical Grades, Pharmaceutical Grades, Optical, Semiconductor, and Electronics Grades.

They are also hydrophobic, and simplify the pressing of powders.
Zinc Laurate is white fine powder, greasy touch, soluble in hot water and hot ethanol, slightly soluble in cold ethanol,ether and other organic solvents,with excellent abilities of emulsifying , dispersing and lubricating.
Zinc Laurate is a type of metallic stearates. 


Zinc Laurate is widely used in preparation of pharma intermediates and cosmetics.
Zinc Laurate is produced from very high quality fatty acid and metal cation sources for polymer and other applications requiring a finely divided powder with good dispersion characteristics.
The relatively fine and consistent particle size distribution of Zinc Laurate provides excellent dispersion properties in blending, compounding and extrusion equipment.


The basic nature and high metal content of Zinc Laurate  makes it an effective acid scavenger and co-stabilizing component in solid mixed metal PVC stabilizers.
The fatty acid component in conjunction with the metal cation properties of Zinc Laurate allow it to function as a lubricant and rheology modifier in PVC processing.
The hydrophobic nature of Zinc Laurate combined with the fine particle size and relatively high surface area imparts excellent water repellency to concrete, mortar and other masonry and construction materials. 


Release to the environment of this substance can occur from industrial use: formulation in materials, in processing aids at industrial sites and in the production of articles.
Other release to the environment of Zinc Laurate is likely to occur from: outdoor use, outdoor use in long-life materials with low release rate (e.g. metal, wooden and plastic construction and building materials), indoor use in long-life materials with low release rate (e.g. flooring, furniture, toys, construction materials, curtains, foot-wear, leather products, paper and cardboard products, electronic equipment) and indoor use (e.g. machine wash liquids/detergents, automotive care products, paints and coating or adhesives, fragrances and air fresheners).


Zinc Laurate can be found in complex articles, with no release intended: machinery, mechanical appliances and electrical/electronic products (e.g. computers, cameras, lamps, refrigerators, washing machines).
Zinc Laurate can be found in products with material based on: plastic (e.g. food packaging and storage, toys, mobile phones), stone, plaster, cement, glass or ceramic (e.g. dishes, pots/pans, food storage containers, construction and isolation material) and rubber (e.g. tyres, shoes, toys).
