Procedure
87.6 kg of behenic acid manufactured by Henkel Co. (trade name of product: Edenor C 22-R), 423 L of distilled water, 49.2 L of 5 mol/L NaOH solution and 120 L of t-butyl alcohol were mixed and reacted, being stirred, at 75° C. for one hour to obtain a sodium behenate solution. Separately, 206.2 L of an aqueous solution of 40.4 kg of silver nitrate (pH 4.0) was provided and kept at a temperature of 10° C. A reaction vessel containing 635 L of distilled water and 30 L of t-butyl alcohol was kept at a temperature of 30° C., and the entire amount of the sodium behenate solution and the entire amount of the aqueous solution of the silver nitrate were added with sufficient stirring, each at a constant flow rate for 93 min and 15 sec and 90 min, respectively.
