Rancidity is the development of unpleasant flavors and odors in fats and oils as a result of chemical changes. There are two main types of rancidity: oxidative rancidity, which occurs when fats and oils react with oxygen, and hydrolytic rancidity, which occurs when fats and oils react with water.
Where do the fats and oils used in soap making come from?
The fats and oils used in soap making primarily come from both animal and plant sources. Common animal fats include tallow (beef fat) and lard (pork fat), while popular plant oils include olive oil, coconut oil, and palm oil. These fats and oils undergo a chemical reaction called saponification when combined with an alkali, typically sodium hydroxide, to produce soap. The choice of fats and oils affects the soap's properties, such as lathering ability and moisturizing qualities.
