Material Metrology & Physical Properties: Liquid Soap

Liquid hand soap and body wash formulations are aqueous surfactant blends typically containing 10% to 18% sodium laureth sulfate (SLES), cocamidopropyl betaine, glycerin emollients, and viscosity-building sodium chloride salts. Under cosmetic industry specifications, standard liquid hand soap has an average density of 1.0200 kg/L (8.512 lbs per US gallon) at 20°C (68°F).

Liquid soaps are shear-thinning (pseudoplastic) fluids whose flow behavior changes under pumping pressure. In commercial bottling lines, product is metered using positive-displacement piston fillers to prevent foam generation.

Batch formulation density is verified using pycnometers to ensure consistent active surfactant content and consumer fill volumes.
