PARTIAL NEUTRALIZATION OF FREE FATTY ACID MIXTURES WITH POTASSIUM, LIVESTOCK FEED COMPOSITIONS INCLUDING THEM, AND METHODS OF MAKING SAME

摘要

This disclosure describes compositions that include a partially neutralized mixture of free fatty acid and a potassium salt of a fatty acid in which the potassium salt of the fatty acid is present in a molar ratio amount in the range of from about 10% to about 40% of the amount of the free fatty acid based upon the theoretical requirement to accomplish total neutralization of all fatty acid in the composition, animal feed compositions that include such compositions, and methods of preparing such compositions.
