Hello sakura

  1. ZINC STEARATE is non-flammable but combustible. Incompatible with oxidizing agents, dilute acids. Emits acrid smoke and fumes of ZnO when heated to decomposition. Refer:http://cameochemicals.noaa.gov/chemical/25084#section4
  2. Also please refer: http://msds.chem.ox.ac.uk/ZI/zinc_stearate.html
  1. Zinc Oxide turns from white to yellow when heated, refer:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_oxide

Should you need further advice, please

kind Regards....
