Procedure

In a 2-liter beaker equipped with a stirrer are placed 141 g of oleic acid (acid value: 198), 59 g of a 48% aqueous solution of caustic potash and 1406 g of water. A reaction is carried out for 2 hours at 30° C. with stirring to obtain an aqueous solution of potassium oleate having a pH value of 10.4 and containing 10.1% by weight of a solid matter.
