    • 1.4     AIM AND OBJECTIVES
      I.       AIM
      Preparation of soap using local raw materials.
      II.      OBJECTIVES
      1.       To prepare local soap with woodash derived from the calyx and the corolla of palm flower (Ejeasis Guineensis), which serves as an alkali.
      2.       To know the trees in which caustic alkali can be obtained apart from palm tree (EleasisGuineensis).
      3.       To improve the properly preparation of local soap and high quality local soap.
      4.       To educate some illiterate local soap producers on how to set a standard in the production of local soap and still retain its effectiveness and for a wider acceptability.
      5.       To create awareness on the need and importance of locally made soap analysis.
      6.       To make known to or enlighten especially the local soap producers (both urban and rural manufacturers) on the best and exact quantity or raw materials and methods to use to achieve better results in their products.
      This research project could as well as form basis for further research work on local soaps analysis in this institution.
      1.5     STATEMENT OF PROBLEMS
      The problems why people are no longer interested in the local soap is because it causes irritation of the skin; Reason, because they are not medically investigated and are not dirtiness causes dust, grief and stiffs on fabrics in the heading process becaus3 of the inaccurate measurement of the alkali and inability to bring out the purest form of the alkali.  Also some smokes and wood particles enter into the pot of soap on stirring because of inability to maintain a hygienic on cooking and on stirring.
      1.6              HYPOTHESIS
      H1              :         Raw Materials can be used in making local soaps
      Ho              :         Raw materials can not be used in making local soap.
      1.7     SIGNIFICANCE
      This soap includes “Builders” as alkaline compound, which improve the cleansing efficiencies, example, in washing of cloth, washing of plate and washing of kitchen utensils.
      1.8     LIMITATION OF THESE STUDIES
      This research work is limited by the extraction of alkali to manufacture good quality local soap with the leaching process and filtration method and it’s crastallization.
