Description
Stearic oil, technical grade, is a laboratory fatty oil intended for technical and general chemical applications rather than high-purity analytical use. Key physical properties include a density of 0,89 g/cm³, a flash point above 180 °C and a boiling point above 230 °C, which inform handling, heating and storage decisions in the laboratory. The product is supplied as a 1 l glass pack from manufacturer Carl ROTH, convenient for process trials, formulation screening and routine technical workflows where a stearic-type oil is specified. Its elevated flash and boiling points support work at moderately elevated temperatures when appropriate engineering controls are in place. Use according to standard laboratory practice for technical oils, with attention to compatibility, ventilation and spill control. The glass packaging aids clean dispensing and visual inspection of the contents before use.
This article is part of Pharmacopoeia reagents & excipients.
