Emulsions<br />

Monovalent fatty acid soaps form oil-in-water emulsions. High-melting stearic acids are used<br />

in emulsions with bodying properties for body milks, hydrating creams, protective creams, etc.<br />

Soaps of oleic acid yield more fluid emulsions, which modify the viscosity of stearic soap<br />

based cream.<br />

Soaps<br />

Stearic acids are products of choice for the manufacture of luxury soaps and shaving sticks<br />

or foams. Oleic acids are recommended to produce liquid pump soaps. Coconut acids are<br />

outstanding foamers, used in shaving foams and aerosols. The foam they produce is extremely<br />

soft and offers great ease of expulsion.<br />
