Accordingly, the examples should not be construed as limiting the scope of the embodiments herein.
The description herein after, of the specific embodiments will so fully reveal the general nature of the embodiments herein that others can, by applying current knowledge, readily modify and/or adapt for various applications such specific embodiments without departing from the generic concept, and, therefore, such adaptations and modifications should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalents of the disclosed embodiments. It is to be understood that the phraseology or terminology employed herein is for the purpose of description and not of limitation. Therefore, while the embodiments herein have been described in terms of preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that the embodiments herein can be practiced with modification within the spirit and scope of the embodiments as described herein.
Based on international trends it was decided to produce bathing bars/soaps with unique shapes, colours for example soaps depicting animals, birds, motor cars, etc and even fragrances that provide visual appeal to Kids.
Different permutations & combinations of chemicals, colors, perfumes, molds with different component were carried out to study technicalities and economics of the operation and also wide-spread opinion polls among experts and youngsters.
R & D batches of mosaic transparent soaps with different shapes and sizes and different components with the help of cardboard cut-works were made. In same type of soap, it was difficult to spot the component because of the same color. It was decided to make the component and transparent body with different colors. But it was not feasible to fix the component in the transparent soaps. Hence, it was decided to make components of dark shades in opaque soaps, leaving rest of the body transparent.
Initially, the bathing bars were tried with a conventional fiber body and plastic body for the mold, but several problems e.g. Whitening /Discoloration of soaps surfaced and removal of soap from mold became cumbersome. Finally Silicon mold was selected was found to be compatible with the formulations.
Initially Opaque and transparent soaps were prepared simultaneously in two different vessels. But, it was found that, transparent soap batch got ready earlier than opaque soap batch which took extra time. This difference in duration created solidification of transparent batch. A boiler had to be used to melt it again which was time consuming as well as expensive. The transparent type of material was discharged from base through the pre-fixed component in mold resulted in getting off-spring scattered in the mold itself. Obviously, large quantity got rejected. This loss was unbearable. At the time of discharging the batch, material got imbibed with black-waste particles and soap solution was subjected to heavy contamination. Uniformity of the component size was not maintained.
Finally a process was developed where the opaque soaps were prepared and then carved to get desired shape articles. In the silicon mold, the articles were fixed at appropriate spots and the transparent bar formulation was poured. The product was then air dried and the bathing bars removed.
Thus, in accordance with the present disclosure, there is provided a mosaic bathing bar comprising an opaque soap and a translucent bathing bar, wherein the opaque soap is integrated with the solid translucent bathing bar and is visually distinguishable from the translucent bathing bar.
In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, the mosaic bathing bar comprises 15-20 % of soap (2) by mass and 85-80% of translucent bathing bar (1) by mass. The soap is opaque, integrated with the solid translucent bathing bar and is visually distinguishable from the translucent bathing bar. The soap and the translucent bars can be provided in different shapes, sizes and colors.
The mosaic bar is provided in various shapes but not limited to car, duck and dog, and in various colors but not limited to green, orange, yellow, red, pink and black and in various fragrances but not limited to mango, strawberry and green apple.
In accordance with the present disclosure, there is provided a process for making a mosaic bathing bar. The process includes following steps:
• preparing soaps of desired shapes;
• preparing a bathing bar solution;
• placing and arranging the shaped soap in a frame;
• pouring into said frame, the bathing bar solution ; and
• allowing the poured bathing bar solution to cool, solidify and integrate with the shaped soap to form a mosaic bathing bar.
The bathing bar solution is poured into the silicon frame at a temperature in the range of 60-800C and is then cooled and air dried for a period of 15 to 60 minutes at a temperature in the range of 25-350C. The solution solidifies to form a translucent bathing bar around the soap. The solid soap (2) is opaque and visually distinguishable from the translucent bathing bar(1).
In accordance with the present disclosure the bathing bar are specifically made for Kids skin types and comprises
