Soft Soap Liquid is a viscous liquid, water-soluble soap formulated from vegetable-oil-derived fatty acid soaps. It is designed for general-purpose cleaning, degreasing and surface washing applications.
The product provides effective wetting, emulsification and removal of oily and greasy contamination from suitable hard surfaces. Its viscous liquid nature allows easy dilution with water and convenient application by mop, brush, spray or manual cleaning.
Soft soap is traditionally produced using potassium-based alkali, which produces a softer and more water-soluble soap compared with conventional sodium soap.
