ABSTRACT: The aim
of this study was to select sheep fat from Tsetserleg sum of Arkhangai aimag as
raw material and to produce liquid soap. The oil was extracted from raw
materials such as sheep’s tail fat (TF), outer fat (OF), and inner fat (IF),
which were analyzed by chemical methods, and
the liquid soap was obtained by cold methods. Liquid soap was prepared from
three types of raw materials, each of which was mixed with 70% fat oil and 30%
liquid oil. The ratio was chosen to dilute the liquid soap to 2% of the
product. The most suitable oil for preparing liquid soaps from raw materials such as TFO, OFO, and IFO was the tail
fat oil (TFO). The highest unsaturated fatty acid content in crude fats and
oils was 41.23%, the highest content of saturated fatty acids was 22.3%, and
the highest content of methyl-stearate was 33.65% by the GC-MS analytical method.
