How Much Stearic Acid to Add to Soap
On the amount of stearic acid added to soap
Where making soap, if you want to know the amount of stearic acid added, it is especially important. Soap is widely used, and stearic acid has a great impact on the quality and properties of soap.
The good and bad of soap, depending on its use. If it is a soap for cleansing the skin, the amount of stearic acid should be considered the nature of the skin. For those with delicate skin, stearic acid should not be too much, covering its quality is slightly greasy, too much will make the skin feel uncomfortable, or cause pore congestion. If used in polyester soap, stearic acid can be slightly increased to strengthen its decontamination power.
How should it be studied? Ancient methods rely on experience. At present, it depends on scientific testing. Generally speaking, the proportion of raw materials for making soap must be the same. Stearic acid in various materials, if the soap for cleansing the skin, accounts for about 12/10, can make the soap mild, dense foam, cleansing the skin without damaging the skin. If it is a polyester, it can be increased to fifteen or sixteen, and the better the decontamination effect.
However, it is not a fixed number. The raw materials are different in different places, and the climate is different. It can cause the properties of soap to change. When the north is dry, the stearic acid in the soap may be slightly reduced to avoid the skin being too dry after use; when the south is wet, it may be slightly increased to help it maintain its properties.
Soap makers must study carefully, according to different uses, the quality of materials, the dryness and humidity of the ground, and adjust the amount of stearic acid to obtain the best soap.
