Demand for stearates in Russia changes its structure
According to UK-based market research firm Merchant Research & Consulting Ltd., stabilizer products - which are mainly based on stearates - demonstrate a shift towards ecologically-safe (cadmium-free) thermostabilizers.
Presently, the demand for thermostabilisers in Russia is evaluated at the level of 35-37K mt/y. Imports satisfies more than 60% of the demand for thermostabilisers.
It is quite difficult to assess the volume of the market for stearic acid and and stearates due to the 'shady' character of this market which encompasses many industries in Russia including the manufacture of shampoos, soap, paint and varnish materials, polymer processing.
Stearic acid is the most common of the long-chain fatty acids. It is found in many foods, such as beef fat, and cocoa butter.
It is widely used in cosmetics, food packaging, deodorant sticks, toothpastes, and as a softener in rubber.
Stearates of sodium, lithium, calcium, lead, etc. are used as components of plastic lubricants and PVC thermostabilizers.
