Abstract
A continuous process for preparing a metallic soap by a double decomposition process is disclosed, in which an aqueous solution of an alkali soap and an inorganic metal salt are separately fed directly on the surface of the rotating impeller of a mixer to instantaneously mix them together and the resulting metallic soap aqueous slurry is discharged out from the mixer without delay. Metallic soaps free from contamination with unreacted starting materials or by-products can be continuously obtained using small-sized reactor vessels with a reduced energy.
Claims5
A continuous process for preparing a metallic soap by a double decomposition process, comprising the steps of:
- feeding an aqueous solution of an alkali soap and an inorganic metal salt directly onto the surface of a rotating impeller blade of a turbine pump to instantaneously mix said alkali soap and inorganic metal salt together and form a metallic soap aqueous slurry;
- and
- discharging the metallic soap aqueous slurry from the turbine pump without delay by means of a scraper blade attached to the rotor of the turbine pump.
