The increasing consumption in metalworking fluids and personal care industry drives the global Isobutyl stearate market
Isobutyl stearate (IBS) is an ester which is primarily used in metalworking, personal care and other industrial activities. It is a stearate ester which is available in both oily liquid and waxy solid forms. Isobutyl stearate due to its less toxicity is widely preferred as an ingredient in personal care products. Similarly, the use of esters in metal lubricating application has increased over the years due to its excellent lubricating properties. It improves the lubricity of different metals like copper, steel and aluminum. The demand for isobutyl stearate is expected to grow in the coming years, due to its increasing consumption in metalworking fluids and personal care industry. Stearate esters have excellent lubricating properties and therefore preferred as metalworking lubricants. These esters have a low viscosity and are also used in personal care products.
