Metallic stearates such as zinc stearate, aluminum stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium stearate, and calcium stearate are used as lubricants and releasing agents in the plastics industry. The increasing production of plastics in the form of PVC, polyamide, polypropylene, and polyethylene is expected to boost the demand for metallic stearate in this segment.
However, market growth in this segment will be slower than the growth of the market in the rubber segment. This report provides an accurate prediction of the contribution of all the segments to the growth of the metallic stearate market size.
Metallic Stearate Market: Key Drivers and Trends
The increasing demand for metallic stearates from cosmetics manufacturers will be a significant factor driving the growth of the metallic stearate market. Metallic stearates have high gelation capacity and lubrication and release properties. As a result, metallic stearates such as zinc stearate, magnesium stearate, and calcium stearate are widely used in shampoos, eyeliners, lipsticks, sun-protective lotions, and body and foot powders. Moreover, powdered metallic stearates have hydrophobic properties which help in preventing cosmetic products from absorbing water. With the increasing demand for cosmetics and beauty and personal care products, the demand for metallic stearates will also grow.
- The lubricating properties of magnesium stearates help in preventing ingredients from sticking to the equipment.
- Magnesium stearate minimizes drug dissolution by causing wettability and slow fragmentation of tablets.
- The properties of magnesium stearates have boosted its adoption as an anti-adherent in the manufacture of capsules, medical tablets, and powders.
- Magnesium stearate is used as a texturizer, non-gelling thickener, and lubricating agent in the personal care industry and as a binding agent in hard candies.
- The increasing demand for magnesium stearates for various applications will act as one of the critical metallic stearate market trends, having a positive impact on the growth of the market.
- During 2019-2023, the metallic stearate market will grow at a CAGR of over 5%.
