Sodium Stearate is the sodium salt of stearic acid and is commonly used in personal care formulations as a thickener, gelling agent, and surfactant. It is especially well-known for its role in creating transparent or opaque stick formulations, such as deodorants, cleansing bars, and solid emulsions. It contributes to structure, stability, and viscosity in both water- and oil-based systems.
How to Use: Dissolve in water with heat (typically above 70°C / 158°F) or melt into the oil phase depending on your system. Stir until fully dissolved and homogeneous.
Appearance: White, fine powder or flakes
Suggested Usage Rate: 1% – 15% depending on application
INCI: Sodium Stearate
