Sodium Stearate - White Solid Soap Base | Hydrophilic-hydrophobic Surfactant For Cleansing And Solubility Enhancements In Cosmetics And Pharmaceuticals

By efficiently understanding the market trends, we are able to export, import, manufactured, distribute, supplied and trading of Sodium Stearate in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. Sodium stearate is the sodium salt of stearic acid. This white solid is the most common soap. It is found in many types of solid deodorants, rubbers, latex paints, and inks. It is also a component of some food additives and food flavorings.

uses:-
Characteristic of soaps, sodium stearate has both hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts, the carboxylate and the long hydrocarbon chain, respectively. These two chemically different components induce the formation of micelles, which present the hydrophilic heads outwards and their hydrophobic (hydrocarbon) tails inwards, providing a lipophilic environment for hydrophobic compounds. The tail part dissolves the grease (or) dirt and forms the micelle. It is also used in the pharmaceutical industry as a surfactant to aid the solubility of hydrophobic compounds in the production of various mouth foams.
