ACKNOWLEGEMENT
I’d like to express my greatest gratitude to the
people who have helped and supported me
throughout my project. I’m grated to Mrs Anita
Mitra for her continuous support for the project,
from initial device and encouragement to this day.
Special thanks of mine goes to my colleagues who
helped me in completing the project by giving
interesting ideas, thoughts and made this project
easy ad accurate.
I wish to thanks my parents for their undivided
support and interest who inspired me and
encouraged me to go my own way, without which

but one the least I want to thanks my friends who
appreciated me for work and motivated me and
finally to god who made all the things possible…..
PREFACE
Soaps and detergents remove dirt and grease from
skin and clothes. But all soaps are not equally
effective in their cleaning action.
Soaps are the Na and K salt of higher fatty acids
such as Palmitic acid, Stearic acid and Oleic acid.
The cleansing action of soaps depends on the
solubility of the long alkyl chain in grease and that
of the –COONa or the –COOK part in water.
INTRODUCTION
Soap is an anionic surfactant used in conjuction
with water for washing and cleaning, which comes
either in solid bars or in the form of a viscous liquid.
Soap consists of sodium or potassium salts of fatty
acids and is obtained by reacting common oils or
fats with a strong alkaline in a process known as
saponification.
The fats are hydrolysed by the base, yielding alkali
salts of fatty acids (crude soap) and glycerol.
