stearic acid in emulsion 1

[emulsions]

How can I make a stearic acid emulsion that stays fluid ? What kind of emulsifier(s) must I add and how to produce this ? Any tips are welcome... I usually get a paste in stead of a more or less fluid emulsion !

Didn't anyone ever answer? I had the same question. Only I was interested in emulsifying Sodium Stearate. If you have solved your problem, I would appreciate getting a tip from you.
