Abstract
Attempt was made to determine the composition of hydrolytic precipitates in sodium salts of C12, C14, and C16 fatty acids and potassium laurate at ca. 20°C. In addition, the formation of acid soap complexes in the systems of myristic acid-sodium myristate and lauric acid-potassium laurate was examined using the technique of differential thermal analysis (DTA). For the hydrolytic precipitates, the acid soap was found to have a 1 : 1 molar ratio of fatty acid and soap. Further, DTA indicated the presence of neutral soaps coexisting with the acid soaps at higher soap concentrations.
