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. |
