@Abdullah I guess may giving (better texture / reducing cost/more emollient product/reducing bubbles…)
-
Isn’t there any better option for reducing cost?
-
@Abdullah maybe some low cost powder can be choice.
-
Any examples?
Like what powder? -
Corn strach @Abdullah

It does not make sense, maybe it is soap ( hydrogenated fat with NAOH), usually a syndet bar contains around 15% soap like a Dove bar.

In ingredients list it doesn’t have NAOH.
pH is also 5-6.5
Doea 15% soap at pH ≤7 make any sense?

Search Dove, on this website you will see that it contains 15% soap it was confirmed by a chemist that worked at Unilever.
Soap is a fatty acid salt, sodium cocoate, sodium palmpate… NAOH will not be included in the ingredient list. It would not be the first time a company is not listing ingredients correctly. -
It comes in the form of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil from the supplier. They are not converting it to a saponified soap.The product brings a “soft” feel, emolliency, and lubricity to the syndet bar.We used this in a reformulation of a major brand syndet as it was in the legacy formulation. -
You are welcome @Abdullah

Does it matter what Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil we use or anyone will have the same effect?
Is soft feel & lubricity the only effect of Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil or it has any effect on foam, viscosity and detergency too?
