The gelation capacity per gram of sodium linolate in different 

 alcohols is shown photographically in Fig. 31 and graphically 

 in Fig. 32. The graph is based upon values shown in Table

If the gelation capacities of sodium linolate, sodium oleate 

 and sodium stearate in the different alcohols are compared, read-
