Part 6 (2/2)

Formulae for soap powders which have been found to be suitable for running dry in the mixer follow:

I Soda ash, 58 per cent. 42 lbs.

Silica 220 ”

Settled soap (usually cottonseed). 25 ”

Salt 10 ”

II Soap (settled cottonseed) 40 lbs.

Soda ash, 58 per cent. 60 ”

III Settled soap 100 lbs.

Soda ash, 58 per cent. 400 ”

Fillers in varying proportions may replace the soda ash in the above formulae. It is of course understood that the soap has been previously made and run as molten soap into the crutcher.

The following soap powders will not dry up in the crutcher upon running, but are of the cla.s.s which may be framed or run on the floor to solidify:

I Soap 850 lbs.

Filler 400 ”

Sal soda solution, 20 degs. B 170 ”

II Soap 650 lbs.

Sal soda solution 170 ”

IV Soap (settled tallow) 800 lbs.

Filler 400 ”
