SYNTHETIC DETERGENT BARS AND THE METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

There is provided a mild detergent toilet bar (syndet bar) composition containing from at least 25 percent up to about 65 percent by weight of synthetic surface active agents, which lathers, foams and wears well, exhibits minimal slushing and curd-forming properties in all types of water, possesses good plasticity and tactile properties while also being mild and non-injurious to the user's skin and readily processed with conventional soap-making equipment. The syndet bar compositions contain a) from about 15 to 35 percent by weight of water soluble acyl esters of isethionic acid salts; b) at least one sulfosuccinate in an amount from about 10 to about 30 percent by weight wherein the weight ratio of said acyl isethionate esters to sulfosuccinate is 0.5:1 to 2:1; c) free fatty acid in an amount from about 25 to 40 percent by weight; d) at least two percent up to about 10 percent by weight of an organic hydrophilic agent; e) an organic binder/filler in an amount from about five percent up to about 20 percent by weight; and f) water in an amount from about two to 10 percent by weight.
