Abstract

Soap is a substance that dissolves in water to remove dirt from surfaces such as skin, textiles and other solids. Soaps are mainly used as surfactants for washing, bathing and cleaning. They are also used in textiles spinning and are important components of lubricants. The present study was carried out to assess the various properties of different soaps, in terms of pH, basicity, emulsification, content of fat, washing property,moisture content, foaming capacity and hard water reaction. A cursory look at the obtained results reveals similarities in parameters in the selected soaps It can been concluded that the values determined are within the limits set by standards
