It acts as a lubricant in tablet manufacturing, preventing sticking and improving flowability. Its hydrophobic properties make it useful in controlling moisture and enhancing the stability of ointments, creams, and suspensions. Aluminum Stearate is also used in cosmetic and industrial applications, where it functions as an emulsifier and anti-caking agent.
