Calcium Stearate, also known as Calcium(II) Stearate, Stearic Acid Calcium Salt, Calcium Octadecanoate, and Calcium Distearate, has the chemical formula Ca[CH3(CH2)16CO2]2 or C36H70CaO4. It appears as white to off-white crystalline hygroscopic powder with no odor. It is insoluble in Water, Alcohol, and Ether at ambient conditions. Chemically pure or Laboratory reagents are the two terms often used to describe Lab Grade chemicals. Lab Grade chemicals do not meet any accepted quality or purity requirements such as the ACS Grade, the USP Grade, and the FCC Grade, despite their acceptable purity. In the United States of America (USA), Lab Alley is selling its high-quality Calcium Stearate, Lab Grade online at laballey.com. Due to its high purity, Calcium Stearate, Lab Grade is highly recommended for labs and commercial applications.
