Overview of Aluminium Stearate

Aluminium Stearate is a fine, white, hydrophobic powder formed from aluminum salts of stearic acid. It is widely used in personal care, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, paint, ink, and industrial formulations due to its excellent thickening, stabilising, water-repellent, and gelling properties. Its chemical identity is Aluminium Stearate (CAS No. 637-12-7).

In personal care and cosmetic formulations, Aluminium Stearate is valued for its role as a texture enhancer, oil phase stabiliser, and consistency modifier. It improves product spreadability, prevents ingredient separation, and enhances shelf stability in creams, ointments, lotions, and makeup products. Due to its skin-compatible nature, Aluminium Stearate for skin applications is commonly used in dermatological and cosmetic products.
