SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

Calcium stearate is a food additive permitted for direct addition to food for human consumption, as long as 1) the quantity of the substance added to food does not exceed the amount reasonably required to accomplish its intended physical, nutritive, or other technical effect in food, and 2) any substance intended for use in or on food is of appropriate food grade and is prepared and handled as a food ingredient.|Substance added directly to human food affirmed as generally recognized as safe (GRAS).|Calcium stearate is an indirect food additive for use as a component of resinous and polymeric coatings.|Feed-grade calciium stearate is a food additive permitted in feed and drinking water of animals.

Combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. Finely dispersed particles form explosive mixtures in air.

|Warning|H319 (97.11%): Causes serious eye irritation [Warning Serious eye damage/eye irritation]|P261, P264, P271, P280, P304+P340, P305+P351+P338, P312, P337+P313, P403+P233, P405, and P501|Aggregated GHS information provided by 3757 companies from 10 notifications to the ECHA C&L Inventory. Each notification may be associated with multiple companies.

Use water spray, powder, alcohol-resistant foam, carbon dioxide.

Personal protection: particulate filter respirator adapted to the airborne concentration of the substance. Vacuum spilled material with specialist equipment.

A nuisance-causing concentration of airborne particles can be reached quickly when dispersed.

May cause mechanical irritation.

NO open flames. Closed system, dust explosion-proof electrical equipment and lighting. Prevent deposition of dust. Prevent build-up of electrostatic charges (e.g., by grounding).

Use local exhaust or breathing protection.

Wear safety goggles.

Calcium stearate Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

Harrison, Biochem J 18, 1222 (1924); Kebrich, Petrot, US patent 2,650,932 (1953 to National Lead).|BY PPT FROM CALCIUM CHLORIDE & SODIUM SALTS OF MIXED FATTY ACIDS (STEARIC & PALMITIC). PPT IS COLLECTED & WASHED WITH WATER TO REMOVE SODIUM CHLORIDE.

Uses

For waterproofing fabrics, cement, stucco, explosives; as a releasing agent for plastic molding powders; as a stabilizer for polyvinyl chloride resins; lubricant; in pencils and wax crayons.Food grade calcium stearate, derived from edible tallow, is used as a conditioning agent in certain food and pharmaceutical products.
