I am working in powder metallurgy process. During compaction I have faced material deposition in die wall. I have got a suggestion to use zinc stearate as a die wall lubricant. I received zinc stearate as a powder. So suggest the proper way to use zinc stearate powder during compaction process.
Perhaps this related RG discussion can help:

Carlos Araújo Queiroz Hai Carlos, thank you for your suggestions. It really helped me.
you may try dissolving zinc stearate in acetone and check solubility
Prashant C. Jikar Thank you for suggestion, I will try your suggestion.
I have a similar question. Could you possibly mix it with some natural oils and heat it up to transfer it to liquid form?
