Brief Overview
The saponification process, which uses sodium hydroxide to mix animal fats like tallow with vegetable oils like palm, coconut, and olive, produces soap noodles. Soap noodles, one of the earliest types of soap, are very effective for adjusting tastes, colors, and other components throughout the soap-making process. Additional processes including pressing, stamping, and molding are frequently used on the finished product to create a variety of soap products.
Manufacturing Process
Soap is typically manufactured through direct saponification, a process where triglyceride molecules react with sodium hydroxide. Hydrolysis breaks down fats and oils into glycerol and fatty acids. Subsequently, sodium hydroxide is employed to neutralize the fatty acids. Trans-esterification of the oil or fat with methanol then occurs, leading to the creation of methyl esters. These methyl esters are further saponified with sodium hydroxide to form soap, and methanol is generated as a byproduct.
Detergent Industry
To create a thin soap layer, the mixture is processed with either a worm screw or rollers. High pressure, stirring along the screw's length, leads to the extrusion of multiple soap layers through a perforated endplate. Producing various soap types, like laundry, toilet, medicinal, and high-lather soap, relies on the unique traits of different soap noodles.
