Materials
(chemicals) Needed For The Production Of 20 Litres of Liquid Detergent (soap)
1.
Nitrosol/Antisol or C.M.S……….1 tin milk cup ( very full).
2.
Sulphonic acid…………..1 litre
3.
Caustic soda……………..1/3 tin milk cup
4.
Soda ash……………….1/2 tin milk cup
5.
Texapon………………………5-6 teaspoonfuls
6.
Formaline……………………5-7 teaspoonfuls (optional)
7.
Perfume(Fragrance)……..as desired.
8.
SLS. (Sodium laurate sulphate)…………..5-6 teaspoonfuls
9.
S.T.P.P (sodium Tripolyphosphate)………5-6 teaspoonfuls
10.
Colorant……………..as desired
11.
Water……………………19 litres
These are the essential materials
for making liquid soap.
THE APPARATUS (TOOLS) NEEDED FOR THE PRODUCTION OF LIQUID SOAP
Liquid soap manufacturing process
-Dissolve the caustic soda with 1
litre of water and allow to stay for 30 minutes to 1hr or over night.
-Dissolve soda ash in 1 litre of
water and allow to stay for 30min/hr or over night.
-Get
your sulphonic acid, one of the important chemicals for making soap, pour
inside an empty bowl, and add your perfume (fragrance) to it and the texapoon,
then add like 3-4 litres of water and stir very well for about 5 – 10 minutes.
-Dissolve the SLS with 2 tin milk
cups of water
-Dissolve the STPP with 2 tin milk
cups of water also
-Get
the Nitrosol but if it is C.M.C you’re using, make sure it is dissolved 2 days
to the preparation of the soap with 4-5 litres of water. If you are using
Nitrosol, it’s used instantly (as in, no need soaking it down). What is
Nitrosol?
LIQUID SOAP PREPARATION
-Get the
Nitrosol that has been dissolved in water or the C.MC. that has been dissolved
2 days to the preparation of the soap.
-Add the
dissolved sulphonic acid, texapon and perfume to either the Nitrosol or C.MC
depending on the one you are using and stir very well.
-Add the already dissolved caustic
Soda and stir very well.
-Add the already dissolved soda
ash and stir properly.
-Add formalin to the content and
stir properly.
-Add the dissolved S.T.P.P and
stir.
-Add the dissolved SLS to the
content.
-Dissolve
your colourant in water and ensure that the colourant is completely dissolved,
then add it to the solution and stir thoroughly.
-Add some quantity of water to the
mixture, depending on the thickness of the mixture.
Leave
the mixture for some hours or preferably till the following day and then
package for use or for sale.
Using the instruction or guide
giving for the commercial production of liquid soap, kindly use the giving
materials and measurement given below to produce 2-3 litres of liquid soap at
home.
MATERIALS MEASUREMENT
Sulpunic Acid 1 peak milk ti
Caustic Soda 1 spoon
Soda Ash 2 spoo
STTP or SLS 1/2 spoon
Nitrosol 1 tomato tin cup (just at
mouth level)
Texapon 1/2 spoon
Formalin Optional (just some
drops)
Fragrance(perfume)1/2 spoon or as
desired
Water 2-3 litres
TIPS
-Dilute your sulpunic acid with
1/2 litre of water
-Dissolve the nitrosol with 1/2
litre or just a little less.
-Dissolve the caustic soda with 1
tomato tin cup of water
-Dissolve the soda ash with 1 milk
tin cup of water.
THE FUNCTION OF SOME OF THESE CHEMICALS
-Caustic soda is used as a base
during detergent production: It is a stain remover
-Sulphonic acid is an organic
acid, which is very important in liquid detergent production. It neutralizes
the basic effect of sodium hydroxide (Caustic soda): It is one of the foaming
agents for liquid detergent.
-S.T.P.P
(sodium TripolyPhosphate): In liquid detergent, it helps to soften water,
suspends soil, and serves as an anti-spotting agent. It is a good builder and
also ensures stability of liquid detergents when used.
-Formalin is basically a
preservative in the liquid detergent
-Fragrance (perfume) is to give
good and pleasant smell
-Nitrosol: Is a thicken agent.
– SLS is a foam booster
