Class 2 alcoholatura necessary Materials which yes which not, why. History. Saponification.
Him first that we should keep in mind when acquiring the materials to carry out our soaps it is that all are specific for soaps.
We will need:
Sweep to carry out shown soap, they are the sticks with glycerin.
Sweep to carry out opaque soap, they are the sticks with coconut or of coconut.
Sweep to carry out dressing room soap, they are sticks that allow the attaché of other beneficial products for the skin, as the almond oils, of olive, milk, honey and others.
Fragrancies.
Dyes.
Desmoldante, it can be I liquidate or in aerosol.
Molds.
Not in no way we can use fragrancy for candles to make soaps, neither the dyes for candles are capable for them, and in some cases neither the desmoldantes.
For that?, because the skin absorbs the products that we place on her and as well as it absorbs a good cream and it is nurtured, it damps or it hydrates it absorbs any other product and what cannot make is to select those that can produce him/her damages to her or other organs and the products for candles they are not proven for the use on her but to be blended with the paraffin wax.
The case of the molds is different, we can use the molds of candles that we like to carry out soaps, but before we should clean them very well, to retire all remainder of paraffin wax and then to wash them with detergent and tepid water so that they are not remains of none of the other products, we will dry them well and him but appropriate it is to dew them with a siliconas desmoldante that prolonged its duration and it facilitated the desmoldado, but anointing them with a small quantity of desmoldante for soaps.
In all the cases it should be asked to the supplier of the materials if the same ones are or not capable for soaps, since there is in the market fragrancies, for example that if testeadas are and they are good for both things, the same thing that some desmoldantes.
In the case peculiar of the dyes it is not this way, any dye for candles is good for soaps, he/she has a fat base that if we make a soap of very dark tonality it will stain, this attaché to that you/they can have some component that is toxic.
Good, then already we have a list of materials and the first considerations on as selecting them, now we will see a little bit of the history of the soap and in the next one we will already be making the first soaps.
The history
In some history books, in the encyclopedias and in treaties on products for the personal hygiene can be information that indicates that in old Babylon the soap was already used, also the Sumerians and Hebrew used it and the Egyptians used it to wash the clothes or with medicinal ends.It formulates it older opposing serious of the 2250 to.C. and it is supposed that their expansion begins in Europe, to be more necessary in Italy and Spain, from where I pass England and France.
From this it finishes, toward ends of the year 1700 and with the discovery that made possible the production of the sodium hydroxide, but well-known as corrosive soda he/she extended toward the remainder of the world.
Until that moment the soaps were of unpleasant appearance because you those toward with impure animal fats and wooden ashes, until today you a lot of road has traveled and there are handmade really beautiful soaps carried out with technical plain based on pre-clever sticks that save us the most complex and delicate work of making ourselves the saponification that would involve to have knowledge more comprehensive envelope materials as the sodium hydroxide that well used he/she gives very good soaps as a result, but that in inexpert hands it can be very dangerous.
That it is saponification
In all ways I explain to them that it is saponificar, in plain terms to become soap by means of a relatively plain procedure the vegetable oils and the animal fats.When blending fatty acids with alkaline solutions the soap it is obtained, the animal fats and the vegetable oils are formed by fatty acids, the alkaline solution is obtained blending sodium hydroxide with water.
Carried out this with all the necessary cares and with you formulate them appropriate that depend of called charts of saponification, the soap is obtained.
But to not worrying for this reason, we won't get complicated with none it formulates chemistry, our soaps will be much more similar to a cooking recipe and we won't carry out the saponification since for luck they are in the market these pre-clever sticks carried out by establishments that have the technology, the knowledge and the appropriate professionals for this complex part of the method.All this is simply so that we all know a little bit but of some things that sometimes to have to newspaper within reach of the hand they don't deserve too much of our carefulness and we find surprising for example that the soap has as component an element that we consider very dangerous as it is the sodium hydroxide and that he/she doesn't harm us, but this is this way because exactly the professionals have given with the fair quantity of this material to make that a fat becomes soap.
Then not alone I count it to make you participate to you. of the things of those that went finding out when going into in this fascinating world, but because knowing is like one then can choose and to understand.
