Stearic acid is a mixture of fatty acids obtained from the fractionation of solid components from the treatment of palm oil. Its physicochemical characteristics make stearic acid a very stable fat, which, in its hydrogenated version, is widely used in the candle industries where it contributes to optimal combustion, retention of aromas and colors, molding and solidification. It is also widely used in the cosmetic industry to make soaps.
