Understanding Stearyl Alcohol: Properties, Applications, and Sourcing

Stearyl Alcohol, identified by its CAS number 112-92-5 and often referred to as C18 alcohol or 1-octadecanol, is a fundamental chemical compound with a broad spectrum of applications. Its consistent availability, high purity, and beneficial properties make it a sought-after raw material for businesses worldwide. As a leading manufacturer and supplier based in China, we are dedicated to providing this essential chemical to meet diverse industry needs.

Key Properties of Stearyl Alcohol

Stearyl Alcohol is a saturated fatty alcohol characterized by its appearance as a white crystalline solid. It is virtually insoluble in water, a property that dictates its use in many oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsions. Its melting point typically ranges between 55-61°C, indicating its solid state at room temperature and its utility in formulations requiring a degree of solidity or thickening.

With a purity standard of 99%min, our Stearyl Alcohol ensures reliable performance and consistency, crucial for formulators and manufacturers who depend on precise chemical specifications. The Hydroxyl Value (200~220 mg KOH/g) is a key indicator of its functional alcohol group, essential for esterification and etherification reactions.

Dominant Applications: Cosmetics and Beyond

In the cosmetic industry, Stearyl Alcohol is a widely used emollient, providing a smooth, soft feel to the skin. It also functions as an emulsifier, stabilizing complex formulations like creams and lotions, and as a thickener, improving product texture and consistency. Its ability to create stable emulsions and enhance skin feel makes it indispensable for skincare and haircare products.

Beyond cosmetics, its applications are extensive. In the detergent industry, it contributes to the effectiveness of cleaning agents. For industrial purposes, it serves as a lubricant, enhancing metal surface properties. Furthermore, Stearyl Alcohol is a vital precursor in the synthesis of plasticizers and polymer stabilizers, contributing to the longevity and performance of various polymeric materials.
