Interaction of the Acid Soap of Triethanolamine Stearate and Stearic Acid with Water
Article
  • Mar 2007
Stearic acid and triethanolamine (TEA) in a molar ratio of 2:1 were mixed in aqueous solution at 80 degrees C and subsequently cooled to ambient temperature. The structural evolution of the resultant sample during storage was characterized by using light microscopy, Cryo-SEM, differential scanning calorimetery, pH, infrared spectroscopy, elemental...

... It is the reaction of an undissociated weak base molecule present in solution with a weak acid molecule that is a component of the model skin sebum, resulting in the formation of an amine soap. According to observations made by Zhu et al. on similar soap composition i.e., TEA stearate, it should be assumed that the resulting amine soap slowly hydrolyses over time [23]. However, this process is slow and lengthy, thus the changes were observed after several dozen hours. ...
