Properties of Lithium Stearate
Lithium-stearate can be described as a white powdered substance with chemical formula LiC18H35O2.
Lithium stearate density
: 1.025g /cm3.
Point of melting for lithium stearate
: 220.0-221.5.
It is safe to use at both room temperature and under pressure.
Solubility in lithium stearate
This substance is somewhat soluble in water. It can also be dissolved in ethanol. Strong acid can cause the decomposition into stearic and the related lithium salts. Insoluble in mineral oil, ethyl alcohol and mineral oil. In mineral oils, colloids can form.
Officially, lithium-stearate (a saltof fatty acid) is classified as soap. By reacting lithium hydroxide (with stearic Acid) to form lithium stearate it forms a soft white liquid.

How does Lithium Stearate get made?
Method 1
10g of Stearic Acid was dispersed in 100mL 95% Ethanol. Next, it was titrated using 0.5mol/L Lithium Hydroxide ethanol solution. Phenolphthalein was used to indicate. Once the reaction had reached equilibrium, the precipitated lithiumstearate soap was removed and filtered. You can make the pure product from the crude product by adding 95% of ethanol.
Method 2
In order to dissolve sodium chloride in water to make a solution, add stearic acid to the mixture and heat to over 100. Liquidize lithium chloride in water. Cool it down to room temperature. Add it to the sodium-stearate solution. The reaction will be complete when it's stopped. Get the final product by drying it with air drying equipment.
Lithium Stearate:
Use lithium stearate as a PVC heat stabiliser for transparent products. When combined with phthalate plastizer, it does not produce white fog. Because lithium stearate is more readily melted in ketones than any other stearates it will have less impact on embossing operations.
It is safe to use non-toxic barium soap or lead soap as a substitute. The product is also compatible with a Phosphoric Acid Plasticizer. You can use the product as an external oil lubricant (maximum of 0.6%) for nylon, rigid polyvinylchide, and phenolic resin. Additionally, it can be used to build waterproof and impermeable structures. It is used to make lithium stearate oil.
