Description
It occurs in many animal and vegetable fats and oils, but it is more common in animal fat than vegetable fat. The important exceptions are cocoa butter and shea butter whose fatty acids consist of 28-45 stearic acid. It can also be obtained from the hydrogenation of some unsaturated vegetable oils.

uses :-

stearic acid is useful as an ingredient in making candles, plastics, dietary supplements, oil pastels and cosmetics, and for softening rubber. It is used to harden soaps, particularly those made with vegetable oil. Stearic acid is used in aerosol shaving cream products.

esters of stearic acid with ethylene glycol, glycol stearate and glycol distearate, are used to produce a pearly effect in shampoos, soaps, and other cosmetic products. They are added to the product in molten form and allowed to crystallize under controlled conditions.

in fireworks, stearic acid is often used to coat metal powders such as aluminium and iron. This prevents oxidation, allowing compositions to be stored for a longer period of time.

it is used along with simple sugar or corn syrup as a hardener in candies.
