A study of
saponification reactions |
|
|
|
Introduction:
Saponification is the process
of making soap by reacting a strong base and a fat. There are a
large variety of products that are being made with this method.
Bar soap is one of such products. Tooth paste, shaving cream,
liquid soaps and many lubricants are being made with the same
method. The only difference is the type of fat and the type of
base that you use for your product. |

Project
description:
In this project you will perform saponification experiments with a
variety of fats and bases. You will actually make soap and learn about
the chemistry behind soap, shaving cream, tooth paste and grease
manufacturing industries.
