Calcium Stearate is a food-grade calcium salt of stearic acid, a white, waxy, fine powder that is insoluble in water but slightly soluble in hot oils.We supply bulk Calcium Stearate sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in powder form for international food processing operations. Our Calcium Stearate is widely used in powdered foods, confectionery, dehydrated soups and sauces, tableting and pharmaceutical capsules and food packaging and paper coatings.
Calcium Stearate (E470) is produced by the precipitation reaction between calcium chloride and sodium stearate, or by direct reaction of stearic acid with calcium hydroxide.
Food-grade Calcium Stearate is a white, odourless, tasteless, greasy powder that is GRAS-classified by FDA and approved in Codex Alimentarius. Its amphiphilic nature makes it effective as a flow aid, anti-caking agent, and emulsion stabiliser in dry blends, confectionery, and powdered foods.
