Abstract
Described is a composition and a method for producing a composition. The composition includes a saponified solution of water and lye of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, and tall oil, wherein the composition includes particles having a size of between 5 nm and 100 nm, as determined by a dynamic laser light diffraction scattering method using Malvern Zetasizer Nano-ZS. The method includes the steps: providing a preheated basic solution of water and lye of either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide; and saponification by adding tall oil to the heated basic solution during mixing, to form a saponified solution.
