Calcium stearate is a hydrophobic fatty acid salt used as a lubricant, release agent, and anti-caking additive.

In pharmaceutical and nutraceutical tablets and capsules, it improves powder flow, prevents sticking to tooling, and aids smooth ejection.

It is also used in plastics, rubber, and cosmetics as a heat stabilizer and processing aid.

With low toxicity, good thermal stability, and low solubility in water, calcium stearate is suitable for a wide range of regulated applications.
