Soaps from different blends of palm kernel, palm fatty and coconut oil were prepared. The properties of oils were studied by iodine value, acid value, saponification value, and gas chromatography. The Iodine value test determines the amount of unsaturated fats in the soap, acid value indicates the milligrams of potassium hydroxide required to neutralize the free fatty acid present in one gram of oil sample, saponification value determines the amount of KOH in milligrams which is needed for the neutralization of free fatty acids obtained on complete hydrolysis of an oil sample, and gas...
