1 lb Stearic Acid White Flakes Food Grade NF/USP - Natural Preservative, thickener, emulsifier and stabilizer for Food, soap, Lotion, Cream

1 lb Stearic Acid White Flakes Food Grade NF/USP - Natural Preservative, thickener, emulsifier and stabilizer for Food, soap, Lotion, Cream

Q: What is the % stearic acid?

If you're asking what percent of the product is stearic acid, someone purchased it and analyzed it. It was found to be about 47% stearic acid, about 52% palmitic acid, less than 1% myristic acid, and less than 1% arachidic acid. I understand that the processes commonly used for producing food-grade stearic acid result in a product that is about 50/50 stearic acid and palmitic acid.

Q: is this item suitable for use as emusifier/stablizer for salad dressings

You may not know that 33.3% of the fats in sweet chocolate and 20.5% in milk chocolate actually IS Stearic Acid...so you've likely been consuming it your whole life. Source: USDA Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 20, 2007

Q: Can I use this in homemade almond milk?

Food Grade NF/USP means you can use it in food and eat it.

Q: Is this can be added as preservative in lotion and cream

Its used to thicken lotion/cream. You still would need an actual broad spectrum preservative to keep your creams.
