Description

Barium Oleate CAS NO 591-65-1 is a metal salt of oleic acid, serving as a versatile organometallic compound and chemical intermediate. Its primary value lies in its role as a highly effective heat stabilizer and lubricant in polymer formulations, particularly for PVC and other halogenated plastics. This product is essential for manufacturers in the plastics, lubricant, and specialty chemical industries seeking to enhance material performance and processing stability.

Application

• Primary heat stabilizer and lubricant in the production of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other halogen-containing polymers.
• Key component in the formulation of high-temperature greases and lubricants, providing thickening and water-repellent properties.
• Used as a drying agent or catalyst in certain paints, varnishes, and ink systems.
• Acts as a waterproofing agent and modifier in construction materials and textiles.
• Employed as a chemical intermediate for synthesizing other barium-based specialty compounds.
• Functions as a viscosity modifier and gelling agent in various industrial formulations.

Quality Control

Our Barium Oleate is manufactured under a stringent quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. The product undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, identification, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with agreed specifications and industry standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and performance.
