Swing Soap Noodles TFM >= 67% (85:15)

Brief Overview
Soap noodles are created through the saponification process of vegetable oils like palm oil, coconut oil, olive oil, and/or animal fat (tallow) using sodium hydroxide. Regarded as fundamental soap precursors, soap noodles are widely employed by both soap manufacturers and hobbyists. Their appeal lies in the ease with which they can be personalized using pigments, fragrances, and various additives to craft unique soaps. Further customization of the soap is achieved through molding, pressing, and stamping, culminating in the production of the final product.
Manufacturing Process
The most popular process for producing soaps is called direct saponification, in which sodium hydroxide and triglyceride molecules combine to produce soap. Fatty acids and glycerol are the byproducts of the hydrolysis of fats and oils. Sodium hydroxide is subsequently used to neutralize the fatty acids. Methyl esters are created by trans-esterifying the fat or oil with methanol. Sodium hydroxide was used to saponify the methyl ester, yielding a soap and methanol as a byproduct.
