Zinc stearate is a "zinc soap" widely used in industry

 Overview of Zinc Stearate

Zinc stearate is an organic substance with a chemical formula of C36H70O4Zn. It is a white powder and is insoluble in water. Mainly used as lubricant and release agent for styrene resin, phenolic resin and amino resin. At the same time, it also has the function of vulcanization activator and softener in rubber.

Zinc stearate is a "zinc soap" widely used in industry

Zinc stearate is a "zinc soap" widely used in industry. In this case, the soap in its formal meaning, the metal salt uses a fatty acid: in this case stearic acid. It is a white solid that repels water. It is insoluble in polar solvents such as alcohol and ether, and soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons (such as benzene) and chlorinated hydrocarbons when heated. It is the strongest release agent among all metal soaps. It contains no electrolytes and has a hydrophobic effect. Its main application area is in the plastics and rubber industries. It is used as a release agent and lubricant and can be easily added.

Zinc carboxylates, such as alkaline zinc acetate, use complex formulations instead of simple zinc dicarboxylates. In contrast, the molecular formula of most zinc carboxylates is Zn4O(O2CR)6, which consists of a Zn4O6+ core and a carboxylate ligand that spans the edges.

It is widely used as a release agent for the production of many objects: rubber, polyurethane, polyester processing systems, powder metallurgy. These applications take advantage of their "non-stick" characteristics. In cosmetics, zinc stearate is a lubricant and thickener used to improve texture.

It is an "activator" that accelerates the sulfur vulcanization of rubber. As discovered in the early stages of vulcanization, zinc has a beneficial effect on the reaction of sulfur with polyolefins. Stearate is a form of zinc that is highly soluble in non-polar media of polyolefins.

Being lipophilic, it is used as a phase transfer catalyst to saponify fat.

Application of zinc stearate

Zinc base stearate is widely used in lubricants, stabilizers, decolorants and thickeners. It is used for the demoulding process of polystyrene resin, phenolic resin and amino resin. It is an excellent additive for rubber and plastics, as well as a surfactant and softener.

Lithium nitride is the only stable alkali metal nitride

圖片
  Overview of Lithium Nitride  Li3N  Powder Lithium nitride is a metallic nitrogen compound with the molecular formula Li3N. It is the only stable alkali metal nitride. It is a purple or red crystalline solid, with a high melting point and a light green luster in reflected light and ruby color in transmitted light. Exposure to the air over a long period of time will eventually result in lithium carbonate. The chemistry of basic metal nitrides is extremely limited, and only lithium nitride is stable and easily prepared among binary compounds (sodium nitrite and potassium nitrite are prepared only under more extreme conditions). Lithium nitride belongs to the hexagonal crystal system. There are lithium and nitrogen layers composed of lithium and nitrogen atoms in lithium nitride crystal. The lithium atoms are arranged like carbon atoms in a graphite crystal, with nitrogen atoms at the center of a hexagon of lithium atoms. There is a lithium layer between the lithium and ni...

Is zinc sulfide fluorescent or phosphorescent?

圖片
  Overview of Zinc Sulfide ZnS Zinc sulfide  is a white to off-white or light yellow powder, which becomes darker when exposed to light, stable in dry air, and gradually oxidized to zinc sulfate when stored for a long time in humid air or containing water. Soluble in dilute inorganic acid, soluble in alkali, insoluble in water. Relative density 3.98 (alpha type), (d25) 4.102 (beta type). irritating. Is zinc sulfide fluorescent or phosphorescent? Zinc sulfide  is one of the most common phosphorescent materials. Phosphorescence is a special type of photoluminescence. Unlike fluorescent substances, phosphorescent materials emit absorbed energy immediately. What are the properties of zinc sulfide? Zinc sulfide  is white or slightly yellow powder. Turns into crystals when burned in H2S gas. Its α variant is a colorless hexagonal crystal with a density of 3.98g/cm3 and a melting point of 1700°C. Its beta variant is a colorless cubic crystal with a density of 4.102 g/cm3, w...

Cuprous oxide is also known as an inorganic compound of copper oxide

圖片
  Overview of Cuprous oxide  Cu2O  Powder Cuprous oxide,   the chemical formula is Cu2O, is monovalent copper oxide, a bright red powder solid, almost insoluble in water, in acidic solution disproportionation into copper and copper elemental, in the wet air gradually oxidized into black copper oxide. Cuprous oxide is mainly used in the manufacture of ship bottom antifouling paint(used to kill lower Marine animals), insecticides, and various copper salts, analytical reagents, red glass, but also used in the preparation of copper plating and copper plating alloy solution. Copper(I)oxide is also known as an inorganic compound of copper oxide with the chemical formula Cu2O. It's essentially covalent. The copper(I)oxide crystallizes in a cubic structure. When heated, hydrogen tends to reduce the disproportionation it undergoes in acidic solutions that produce copper (II) ions and copper. When the copper oxide is gently heated with metal copper, it is converted to cuprous ...
