Laundry Soap Production from the Respective Tallows of Goat, Sheep and Cow: Evaluation of Physicochemical Properties for the Best

Tallow mainly consists of triglycerides, whose major constituents are derived from stearic, palmitic and oleic acids, its usage reduces production cost soap, adds lather stability hardness to soap. Laundry soaps were produced with variation on amount tallow (sourced cow, sheep goat) labelled as A, B, C, D E formulations. The respective tallows characterized in terms saponification value acid determined be 192.14 2.24mg KOH/g (cow tallow); 200.56 2.38mgKOH/g (sheep tallow) 197.75 1.96 mgKOH/g (goat tallow). physicochemical properties soap which determine area cleansing determined. considered this work hardness, moisture content, foam capacity, pH, free acidity total fatty matter. content matter the ranged between mild-deep penetration level; 11-21%; 1-9cm; 8-10.5; 0.16-0.82% 40-86% respectively. From comparative analysis, made has lowest level (with formulations B E), 0.16% formulation A), highest 86% (using height 9cm 11% A) mild alkalinity 8 E). These results showed that best skin friendliness, due high degree longer carbon chain lengths acids. values satisfy standard limit set for good quality laundry by National Agency Food Drug Administration Control Encyclopaedia Industrial Chemical Analysis,
