Abstract

Aerated soap bar compositions which contain a limited amount of free fatty acid and salt have improved processing and physical characteristics if the fatty acid soap comprises only a limited amount of trans fatty acids. Superior wet crack and bar feel grades are found, as opposed to similar bars having higher trans fatty acid content. Higher amounts of fatty acid require less inorganic salt for proper viscosity of the crutcher mix.
