Glycerol Tristearate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Tristearin
- Glyceryl Tristearate
Glycerol tristearate is a solid triglyceride used in industrial oleochemical and polymer-processing applications. ChemTrade accepts Malaysia enquiries for polymer-lubricant, industrial and higher-purity grades of tristearin.
The product may be supplied as flakes, powder or pastilles, with the right form determined by plant charging and the selected grade. Buyers compare triglyceride profile, melting behaviour, acid value, moisture and colour when the material enters a qualified formulation.
Applications include polymer lubrication, rubber processing, oleochemical blends and selected personal-care formulations. Glycerol tristearate is not glyceryl monostearate, sorbitan tristearate or a generic stearate salt, so the exact product identity should be retained in the order.
Send the application, physical form, specification, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry. Availability, solid packing, documents and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Glycerol Tristearate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Polymer-lubricant glycerol tristearate | white flakes or powder | — | Internal and external lubricant or processing aid in selected polymer compounds where a high-melting triglyceride is compatible with the formulation. | Bag, carton or lined solid pack is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Industrial oleochemical grade | waxy solid or pastilles | — | Oleochemical and formulated product manufacture requiring a defined triglyceride identity, melting behaviour and purity profile. | Solid packing is matched to the plant charging method. |
| High-purity glycerol tristearate | refined white solid | — | Specialty formulation and development work where colour, odour, assay and impurity limits are tighter than a general industrial grade. | Pack size and document requirements are confirmed before quotation. |

Glycerol Tristearate applications
Common questions about glycerol tristearate
What is glycerol tristearate used for industrially?
Glycerol tristearate, also called tristearin, is used as a solid oleochemical and as a lubricant or processing aid in selected polymer, rubber and formulated-material systems. Suitability depends on the complete recipe and processing temperature.
Is glycerol tristearate the same as glyceryl monostearate?
No. Glycerol tristearate has three stearate groups on glycerol, while glyceryl monostearate has one. They are separate products with different composition, melting behaviour and formulation roles.
Which grade should I request for polymer processing?
Send the polymer type, processing temperature, desired lubrication effect and current additive specification. A polymer-lubricant grade can then be compared by melting behaviour, acid value, moisture, colour and triglyceride profile.
Can glycerol tristearate be supplied as powder or flakes?
Powder, flakes, pastilles or another solid form may be relevant to the feeding equipment and product grade. State the preferred form and loading method so the commercial pack can be matched to the plant.
What details are needed for a glycerol tristearate quotation?
Provide the application, grade, required purity, physical form, quantity, documents and delivery location. Packing, availability and delivery timing are confirmed for the selected oleochemical specification.
