2. Key Applications of 12-Hydroxystearic Acid
Lubricant Additives
Enhances thermal stability and load-bearing capacity in lithium-based greases. Reduces friction in high-pressure industrial machinery.
Cosmetic Formulations
Acts as a thickener and emulsifier in creams, lipsticks, and deodorants. Provides non-greasy texture in anhydrous systems.
3. Industrial Use Cases
Case 1: High-Performance Grease Production
A leading manufacturer achieved 30% longer component lifespan by using 12-hydroxystearic acid at 8-12% concentration in lithium complex greases.
Case 2: Vegan Cosmetic Lines
European cosmetic brands replaced animal-derived stearic acid with 12-hydroxystearic acid to meet vegan certification requirements without compromising texture.
