Reaction Steps
Stearic acid and magnesium oxide were reacted to yield a reaction product of magnesium stearate, water and an excess of magnesium oxide. To this end 50 grams of 60-70 micron, technical grade (95% purity) magnesium oxide, known to exhibit medium reactivity with stearic acid, was introduced into the open-topped reactor.
