Product overview
A stearic acid supplier in Malaysia for your next production run
Timur Oleochemicals supplies palm oil based oleochemicals to international buyers. Stearic Acid Triple Pressed C18-80% is a grade to evaluate when your formulation or process calls for a higher C18 stearic acid content than lower-C18 commercial blends.
Stearic acid is an 18-carbon saturated fatty acid. Commercial grades can include palmitic acid and other fatty acids, so their chain distribution, thermal behaviour and analytical limits matter when comparing suppliers.
Whether you manufacture soap, develop personal care products or distribute industrial chemicals, start with your approved specification. It gives both sides a useful basis for comparing quality and price.
Technical purchasing details
Stearic acid C18-80% specifications: compare the details that count
Request the current producer technical data sheet (TDS), safety data sheet (SDS) and available certificate of analysis (COA). Use the TDS for the agreed specification and the shipment COA for batch results.
| Parameter | Product information / purchasing check |
|---|---|
| Product name | Stearic Acid Triple Pressed C18-80% |
| Product family & feedstock | Palm-based fatty acid; supplied by Timur Oleochemicals from Malaysia. |
| C18 content & chain distribution | Confirm the contractual C18 minimum or range, C16 content and other fatty acids in the offered grade’s TDS and COA. |
| CAS identification | Stearic acid component: 57-11-4. Confirm the commercial product’s substance or mixture identifier in its SDS. |
| Appearance & physical form | Confirm the available form, colour and handling characteristics for the quoted grade. |
| Acid & saponification values | Request limits in mg KOH/g and the relevant test methods for neutralisation and process calculations. |
| Iodine value | Request the maximum value and test method to assess residual unsaturation. |
| Titre / melting characteristics | Request the temperature range in °C and method; titre and melting point should not be treated as interchangeable tests. |
| Colour & moisture | Confirm the colour scale, maximum moisture and any odour requirements relevant to your application. |
| Origin, packing & shelf life | Confirm country-of-origin documentation, net pack weight, pallet configuration and producer storage/shelf-life guidance. |
The table is a purchasing guide. Numerical acceptance limits must come from the offered producer specification; they are not inferred from the grade name.
Applications & buyer requirements
Match the stearic acid grade to your application
Stearic acid serves several manufacturing sectors. Evaluate this C18-80% grade against your own process, formulation trials and required standards before approving it for production.
Body and texture for selected formulations
Stearic acid is used as a structuring ingredient and co-emulsifier in selected creams, lotions and shaving products. Personal care buyers should review colour, odour, fatty acid distribution and the required ingredient documentation.
A fatty acid component for soap systems
Soap makers evaluate stearic acid for bar structure and formulation behaviour. Confirm acid value, chain distribution and thermal characteristics, then validate your neutralisation process and finished product performance.
Feedstock for stearates and other derivatives
Stearic acid is used in metallic stearate manufacture and selected lubricants, coatings, plastics and rubber processes. State your intended use so the offered grade can be assessed against the process requirements.
Make supply comparisons easier
Distributors need clear specifications, product identification and a workable shipment plan. Include your market, order quantity, preferred packaging, delivery schedule and any customer approval requirements in your enquiry.
Start with the required compendial standard
Pharmaceutical enquiries require a separately verified suitable grade. Specify the required pharmacopoeial standard and supporting quality documents; do not assume that a triple pressed C18-80% designation establishes pharmaceutical suitability.
Confirm food suitability for the intended market
Food applications require a separately verified food-suitable grade and relevant documentation. Provide the intended use, destination market and applicable standard so compliance can be checked for the actual product offered.
Documentation & export enquiries
Bring your specification. We can start there.
For a bulk stearic acid quotation, send your target grade, application, quantity and destination. Ask for the documents needed by your purchasing and quality teams:
- Current TDS and SDS for the exact grade offered.
- Available sample COA and shipment-specific COA requirements.
- Country-of-origin and relevant traceability documentation.
- Applicable certification details and their product/site scope.
- Packaging, storage, shelf life and handling information.
If you require Halal, Kosher, RSPO supply-chain status or ISO/GMP-related documentation, name the exact requirement. Its applicability must be checked for the quoted product and supply route.
Storage and handling
Follow the SDS and producer instructions for the supplied grade. Keep the material in its recommended packaging and storage conditions, protect it from contamination, and use the specified handling controls. Confirm shelf life and any temperature limits before arranging storage or transport.
Buyer questions
Stearic Acid Triple Pressed C18-80% FAQs
Is C18-80% the same as 80% overall chemical purity?
The designation concerns the C18 fatty acid content grade. Review the full fatty acid composition, other analytical limits and the producer’s definition of the grade rather than treating the name as a complete purity specification.
How does C18-80% compare with C18-65%, C18-70% or C18-98%?
These designations indicate different C18-content grades. Differences in chain distribution can affect thermal and formulation behaviour. Compare the actual TDS values and validate performance in your process before substituting one grade for another.
Does triple pressed mean the product is automatically cosmetic, food or pharmaceutical grade?
No. Triple pressed is a commercial grade description. Suitability depends on the offered specification, applicable standards, supporting documents and your intended use.
Can I request a sample or review a COA before ordering?
Include sample quantity and your required tests with the enquiry. Ask about sample and sample-COA availability for the offered grade, and agree the batch documentation needed for the shipment.
What is the bulk stearic acid price, MOQ and lead time?
Request a current quotation. The specification, quantity, packaging, delivery basis and destination affect the offer. Price, minimum order quantity and shipment timing need confirmation for your order.
What should I send when sourcing stearic acid from Malaysia?
Send your company details, destination country/port, application, target specification, quantity in metric tonnes, packaging preference and required delivery date. Include any certification, regulatory or supplier-approval requirements.
