is there a chart depicting the qualities which fats have including cleaning, lather/bubbling, conditioning, hardness for their use in lye bar soap?

This http://soapcalc.net/calc/soapcalcwp.asp has a selectable list but does not list them in a chart with qualities in a column.

That includes oils and waxes. Would be nice to thave the soapcalc.net list with columns.

At the bottom of the SoapCalc recipe calculator page, there is a choice to "Sort Oils List." Click on it and you can sort oils by:

SAP

Iodine value

INS

Lauric - Sat 12:0

Myristic - Sat 14:0

Palmitic - Sat 16:0

Stearic - Sat 18:0

Ricinoleic - MonoUnsat 18:1

Oleic - MonoUnsat 18:1

Linoleic - PolyUnsat 18:2

Linolenic - PolyUnsat 18:3
 
In order to see the cleaning/lathering/bubbling/conditioning qualities of each oil/fat, you need to click the icon that says "Download Spreadsheet" on the linked page that lsg supplied. It opens up an Excel spreadsheet with all of that type of info on it.

Thats precisely what was needed to determine which constituents are ideal for the soap batch. Would be better if its posted to the site also instead of being exclusive to the spreadsheet.
