Description

Honey and Honey Wax Soap.

Technical sector

The invention falls within the field of cosmetic products, since it is a bath soap.

Bath soap is a product intended to be put in direct contact with the epidermis for the main purpose of clean it; simultaneously keeps the skin in good condition health, protects and perfumes it.

State of the art

Soaps are prepared by means of one of the best known chemical reactions: oil saponification and fats; it is a hydrolysis reaction in alkaline medium that it consists in the decomposition of an ester in alcohol and salt corresponding carboxylic acid alkaline. Therefore, the Soaps are the alkaline salts of chain fatty acids long

one

         \ vskip1.000000 \ baselineskip
      

Soapy molecules are made up of two parts:

\ sqbullet

a apolar, formed by a long carbonated chain, as a tail, which is neutral and repels the water (hydrophobic) but attracts fat (fat soluble)

\ sqbullet

another polar, head, formed by an electrically charged ionic end and which is similar to water (hydrophilic).

The bipolar structure of soap molecules allows you to reduce the surface tension of the water (increasing wetting) and adhere and make water soluble substances that They usually are not.

There are documents that mention the use of many soapy materials and cleaning agents since ancient times; Already in the first century AD the Roman historian Pliny the Elder described the various forms of hard and soft soaps containing dyes, known as " rutilandis capillis ", which women used to clean their hair and dye them brightly colored.

For centuries soap making was a homework in which animal fats (tallow) were used and vegetable ashes (mainly beech) provided by the alkali. In the 13th century, vegetable fats were introduced into the manufacture of soap, mainly olive oil, and in the XVIII century extended the use of sodium carbonate or soda as alkali, thanks the French chemist N. Leblanc, who provided a process for obtaining sodium carbonate or soda, using ordinary salt, moment from which soap making He suffered a revolution.

So, soap is an element used since antiquity, which results from the chemical reaction between an acid fatty and an alkali, which may vary, and / or mix with various additives, provided they do not interfere with hydrolysis.

Description of the invention

The object of the present invention resides in the Honey and Honey Wax Soap composition, from which they are made multiple varieties attending to the aromatic component used.

Honey and Honey Wax Soap is made from the following raw materials and in proportion, in Weight, which is listed below:

-

Oil Extra Virgin Olive Oil: between 50% and 75%

-

Alcali: between 5% and 10%

-

Wax Bee: between 3% and 5%

-

Honey: between 3% and 7%

-

Aromatic Compounds: between 1% and 5%

-

Water: until 100% complete

         \ vskip1.000000 \ baselineskip
      

These subjects have the particularities that Below are detailed:

\ sqbullet

Extra Virgin Olive Oil : The olive oil used comes from the first cold pressing of the olive of the olive tree ( Olea europaea , Fam. Oleaceae ).

The olives they are oleaginous fruits rich in vitamin E (or tocopherol), which intervenes in lipid metabolism, preventing oxidation abnormal, thus protecting the lipid components of cell membranes and thus contributing to the good state of body tissues; thus, because of its antioxidant power, it prevents  Cell aging and deeply hydrates.

         \ vskip1.000000 \ baselineskip
      

Oil Olive supports without problems up to 180 ° temperature, so retains all its properties when mixed with others subjects.

\ sqbullet

Beeswax : Beeswax ( Apis mellifera , Fam. Apidae , O. Hymenoptera ) is secreted by four pairs of ceriferous glands that are located from the fourth to seventh segments of the ventral side of the abdomen of worker bees aged between 12 to 18 days, and is used to manufacture the honeycomb.

Beeswax It consists of more than 300 components (mostly carbohydrates and alcohols), among which the following stand out: mycicin, cerina, ceroleína and vitamin A.

Beeswax It has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and emollient properties, so it has an intensely moisturizing action and relieves itching and skin irritations and promotes healing of skin conditions

\ sqbullet

Alkali : The alkali used in the composition of Honey and Honey Wax Soap is sodium hydroxide.

\ sqbullet

Aromatic compounds : In the composition of Beeswax and Honey Soap aromatic compounds of vegetable origin are used, which provide a pleasant aroma while providing therapeutic properties derived from their active ingredients (hydrocarbons and oxygenated components, mainly) .

The compounds aromatic of vegetable origin are: essential oils, concrete, Absolutes, resinoids and ointments. These substances depend on Extraction method and starting plant material (bark, stems, leaves, roots, fruit, flowers); it is possible to get a different aromatic compound starting from the same element vegetable, but using different extraction method.

         \ vskip1.000000 \ baselineskip
      

-

The essential oil is extracted from plants by two methods:

simple expression or pressure

distillation at steam, in water or dry;

-

The concretes are obtained by hydrocarbon type solvents; The resulting product is a mixture of volatile oils and waxes.

         \ newpage
      

-

The absolute is obtained from concrete, through a second solvent extraction process (usually a pure alcohol such as ethanol is used). The oils obtained by this process have an excellent odorous quality and are devoid of solvent residues or non-volatile materials.

-

Resinoids are prepared from natural resins by extraction with hydrocarbon solvents (petroleum or hexane); Unlike concrete, resinoids are obtained from dead organic matter.

-

True ointments are products obtained by a procedure called cooling; it is an extraction by digestion in hot fats, in which the flowers are spread on glass plates covered with a thin layer of oil or fat, so that the essence gradually passes to the fat, and the spent flowers are removed and replaced by Other fresh.
