FORMULATION OF TRANSPARENT SOLID SOAP OF RED BETEL LEAF EXTRACT (Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav) WITH VARIATION CONCENTRATION OF STEARIC ACID AND COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE
Abstract
Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav) has the ability against antibacterial
activity such asS.aureus and E.coli because it contains flavonoid compounds which have
antibacterial activity. This study aims to obtain transparent solid soap preparations from red
betel leaf extract which has antibacterial activity. Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav)
leaf extract was obtained through a maceration process using 70% ethanol solvent. Extracts
with a concentration of 0.05 g were then formulated on transparent solid soap preparations
in 4 soap formulas using stearic acid, VCO, 20% NaOH, ethanol, glierin, sucrose, SLS and
cocamidopropyl betaine. In this study, stearic and betaine acid concentrations were varied
to get transparent solid soap results that having a stable foam and high hardness so that it is
resistant in the process of stability, so the characteristics of the transparency test, pH test,
water content test, foam test, organoletic, soap hardness test and stability test. The results
showed that the transparent betel leaf extract transparent transparent soap produced with
13% stearic acid concentration and 4% betaine or F3 had good criteria with a good level of
transparency, good foam stability and optimal soap hardness with a hardness of soap 10.07
kg, and foam power 1.9 cm.
