Glycol Distearate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ethylene Glycol Distearate
Glycol distearate supplier for personal-care, cleaning, plastics and industrial manufacturers in Malaysia. Also called ethylene glycol distearate, it is a white to off-white waxy ester commonly handled as flakes, beads or pastilles.
Personal-care and detergent grades are selected for pearling, opacity, texture and surfactant-system compatibility. Industrial grades may be evaluated for lubrication, release and melt-processing behaviour in plastics and other compounds.
Glycol distearate as a single ester identity is not the same as a formulated pearling blend containing surfactants and other ingredients. Acid value, saponification value, hydroxyl value, colour and melting range should be matched to the receiving formulation.
For a Glycol distearate supplier Malaysia quotation, send the grade, physical form, analytical criteria, quantity and delivery location. Availability, packing, documentation, timing and price are confirmed with the offer.

Glycol Distearate 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Personal-care pearling grade | waxy flakes, beads or pastilles | — | Shampoos, body washes and cleansing formulations where the formulator uses glycol distearate for pearlescent appearance, opacity and texture adjustment. | The required solid form and pack basis are confirmed with the quotation. |
| Detergent and cleaning grade | white to off-white waxy solid | — | Liquid cleaning and detergent systems requiring a specified opacifying, surfactant or appearance-modifying ester grade. | The required processing form and pack basis are confirmed with the quotation. |
| Industrial processing grade | flakes, beads or pastilles | — | Lubricant, release, plastics and other industrial formulations where melt behaviour, acid value and compatibility are defined by the processor. | The required industrial pack basis is confirmed with the quotation. |

Glycol Distearate applications
Common questions about Glycol distearate
Are glycol distearate and ethylene glycol distearate the same ingredient?
Yes. Ethylene glycol distearate is the fuller chemical name commonly used for glycol distearate. The required grade and analytical controls should still be stated on the enquiry.
What form does glycol distearate use in manufacturing?
Commercial material is commonly handled as waxy flakes, beads or pastilles. State the preferred solid form and melting or processing criteria needed by the production equipment.
Is glycol distearate the same as a pearling-agent blend?
No. A commercial pearling blend may combine glycol distearate with surfactants and other ingredients. It has a separate composition from the single ester identity covered on this page.
Which specifications matter for personal-care use?
Formulators commonly define identity, acid value, saponification value, hydroxyl value, colour, moisture, melting behaviour and compatibility with the surfactant system.
Can glycol distearate be used as a processing lubricant?
Selected industrial compounds use glycol distearate for lubrication or release behaviour. The processor should state the resin system, processing conditions and target specification with the enquiry.
What is needed for a glycol distearate quotation in Malaysia?
Provide the grade, solid form, analytical criteria, application, quantity and delivery location. Packing, documentation and timing are confirmed with the quotation.
