    Yes I know that :) I want to saponify my stearic acid not oils as they do not have any tryglicerides. Anyway thanks for all responses.

    Hi,

    Of course I meant addition of nonionic emulsifier.
    Belassi - I have seen this calculator but I need to choose oils - mineral and  isopropyl myristate and I could not find it on the list of oils there..

    Belassi - Many thanks, however this calculator does not apply  to my case I have pure stearic acid and I am not using any oil containing tryglycerides.

    Bobzchemist - My goal is learning indeed, I understand that  you have lot of experience but I start to formulate and would like to understand from basic and not using pre made stuff. I will make another batch with addition of anionic emulsifier to obtain more stable emulsion.
    Regarding to calculation - I think this is simple calculation as below, but if someone could confirm or correct me would be great !

    284.4772 g/mol   -  40 g/mol

    5g                       -  x

    x=0.703 g pure NaOH

    Have you used Ecogel instead of xantham gum? I do not know what kind of psospholipids you are using but they recommend to use viscosity adjuster - Ecogel.
