"I am not clear on how much of the 60% sodium lactate to add. If I have a total batch volume of 1000 ml (1 liter), then to have a final concentation of sodium lactate at 1% that would mean adding 6 ml of sodium lactate, IF the sodium lactate were at a 100% concentration. But since the sodium lactate is at a 60% concentration, does that mean I should add 16.66 ml of 60% sodium lactate?"

This is good to improve hardness in soap. Same thing for salt since it is also sodium.

Posted By: Jecci | Date: October 31, 2014

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

This will help create a harder bar of CP soap, as well as reduce the amount if shrinkage during curing.

Posted By: emmelou | Date: November 06, 2014

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

If you use salt, the soap can sweat profusely, especially in humid weather. Also, salt makes the bar look "gritty". I personally think it looks good, but not everyone feels that way. I have tried adding salt to the lye mixture and at trace...it turns out the same. I used 1/4c in 8lbs 8oz oil. I think sodium lactate is the answer if you're not looking for a bar that looks like it has salt in it.

Staff Answer Yes it can! Under the Review section for this product there are experiences of others who did this successfully.

Posted By: WSP Staff | Date: May 22, 2014

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

Yes, it is an essential element to true "shaving soaps." Many use the hot process method to create the soaps because the sodium lactate will accelerate trace and can cause seizing during CP.

Posted By: Heather | Date: June 24, 2014

Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

Yes! Sodium lactate in hot process soap in addition to full water helps the fluidity and consistency of your HP soap to make it smoother and more pourable.

"Can't soap without it"

COMMENTS: I quickly purchased this from a local distributor after I saw it on their shelves,no hesitation! No one can beat the price specially when buying in large quantities. I don't soap without it and it helps me maintain fluidity when doing HP besides facilitating a quick and easy unmolding in CP soap.

	"Good product at a very reasonable price"
COMMENTS: I am a hobby CP soapmaker, and I always add sodium lactate to my soap in order to get a harder, longer-lasting bar. WSP's sodium lactate seems to be good quality and is significantly cheaper than the other supplier I had previously ordered it from. I would definitely recommend this product to other soapmakers!

"Sodium Lactate for harder bars and more fluid HP"

COMMENTS: My HP soaps were ugly and crumbly... UNTIL i found Sodium Lactate. 1.5 tsp added to my cooled lye water for a 3# batch is perfect to keep my HP soap liquid enough to get into the mold looking nice. Once cut, the bars harden up nicely and look much better than without the Sodium Lactate.
