Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a transparent soap for ornaments, and more particularly to a transparent soap for ornaments suitable for use as an ornament imitating a gemstone or the like and a method for producing the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Transparent soap has heretofore been formed into artificial flowers or the like and is widely used for ornaments. This transparent soap is manufactured as follows. First, a pigment such as a dye and a fragrance are added to a molten transparent soap base, and the mixture is cooled and solidified to obtain a block-shaped transparent soap in which the whole is colored in one color. Then, the lump-shaped transparent soap is cut into a thin plate in the state of containing a sufficient amount of water to form a plurality of plate-shaped pieces. After that, the plate-like pieces are bent or the like to imitate the shape of petals, and the petals are formed by partially overlapping them to obtain artificial flowers. By doing so, it is possible to form an artificial flower that is colorful and emits a fragrance, and it is possible to obtain a transparent soap suitable for a decorative article. However, in the above method, since the whole of the block-shaped transparent soap forming the petals is formed in one color, for example, a gemstone that gradually changes the shade of color over a certain range or a partial color In order to obtain a product composed of a plurality of different colors, it is necessary to use a method in which several kinds of block-shaped transparent soaps of different colors are stacked and formed. The boundaries are difficult to bond and do not have a sense of unity. Therefore, it is difficult to apply the above-mentioned method for producing a transparent soap to the production of an imitation of a gemstone or the like. Also, in that case, when producing a block-shaped transparent soap, it may be possible to partially form a part having a different color in advance, but even if a dye is added to a part of the molten transparent soap base, the dye will not be dyed. It diffuses in the molten transparent soap base material and spreads over the entire surface, resulting in a substantially single color, and it is difficult to form a part having a different color. Moreover,
Even if a dye mixed in a predetermined color is added, it becomes thin when diffused, and it is difficult to form a predetermined color. On the other hand, for example, on a block of transparent soap that is colored and solidified by cooling in a predetermined color,
If molten transparent soap colored in different colors is poured and solidified, it will melt to some extent at both boundaries and a blur-like part with a change in color shade can be formed near the boundary, but it was obtained by such a method In many cases, a bubble portion is formed at the boundary portion, and the boundary portion is known from the outside, so that a sense of unity cannot be obtained. Moreover, there is a risk of peeling from the boundary. Further, in such a method, the cooling has to be performed separately in two times, and the manufacturing is troublesome and time-consuming.
Furthermore, in the method as described above, the range of the blur-like portion is limited, and it is difficult to provide it at an appropriate position.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been proposed in view of the above circumstances, and is one in which a pattern portion having a different color is integrally formed, and can be easily obtained in a short time. It is an object of the present invention to provide a transparent soap for ornaments and a method for manufacturing the same.

[0004]

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by providing a transparent soap for decorative articles having the following features. The transparent soap for decorative articles of the present invention comprises a transparent soap body 1 integrally formed and a pattern portion 4 formed in the transparent soap body 1. In the pattern portion 4, a part of the transparent soap main body 1 has a color different from that of the other parts of the transparent soap main body 1 by coordinating a pigment having a color different from that of the transparent soap main body 1. It is characterized in that it has been made.

Further, the present invention solves the above problems by providing a method for producing a transparent soap for decorative articles having the following features. In the method for producing a transparent soap for decorative articles of the present invention, the molten transparent soap base 1a is poured into a container 10 prepared in advance and cooled. With the cooling, the outer transparent soap base 1b arranged on the wall surface side of the container 10 is solidified, and the inner transparent soap base 1c arranged inside thereof is in a molten state. By incorporating a pigment of a color different from that of the transparent soap substrate 1a into the substrate 1c, the transparent soap body 1 is integrally formed, and the pigment of a different color from the transparent soap body 1 is coordinated with a part of the transparent soap body 1. The method is characterized by:

The transparent soap for ornaments of the present invention is composed of a transparent soap body 1 and a pattern portion 4 as shown in FIG. 1, and the transparent soap body 1 is a transparent soap which has been conventionally used. Similar ones are used. Specifically, the transparent soap main body 1 is prepared by heating and dissolving compounded fats and oils composed of beef tallow, coconut oil, etc., alcohol, grinserin, etc. in a reaction kettle and adding caustic soda to saponify at 70 to 80 ° C. Then, the mixture is held at 65 to 75 ° C., sugar, water, or if necessary, a pigment such as a dye or a fragrance is added, and then stirred to obtain a molten transparent soap base. And it is obtained by cooling and solidifying this.

The pigments or dyes can be used alone or in combination as the coloring matter constituting the pattern portion 4. Examples of the pigment include titanium oxide (white), black iron oxide, chrome oxide (green), yellow iron oxide, ultramarine blue and carbon black. As the dye, red 227, red 213, red 504, red 401, green 3, green 201, yellow 2
03, Huang 403- (1) and the like.

Then, this pigment is put into the above-mentioned molten transparent soap base material during the solidification of the transparent soap base material.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, a molten transparent soap base 1a
When placed in a container 10 having an opening 10a on its upper surface and cooled, when the transparent soap base 1a reaches about 40 ° C., it begins to gel and solidify. At the time of solidification, the transparent soap base in the container 10 is solidified. The whole of 1a does not start to solidify uniformly, but since the portion on the wall surface side of the container 10 has a faster cooling rate than the upper center portion of the inside, it solidifies sequentially from the portion on the wall surface side of the container 10 to the upper center portion. And this container 10
The outer transparent soap base 1b coordinated to the wall surface side of the container 10 in the inner transparent soap base 1a is solidified, and the inner transparent soap base 1c coordinated inside the container 10 is not melted or gelled. In the state, the pigment is included in the transparent soap base 1c
To

When a dye is used as a pigment, when the dye enters the molten transparent soap base 1a, it dissolves in the water in the transparent soap base 1a, and the dye itself diffuses into the molten transparent soap base 1a. Even if it is left as it is, it gradually spreads to the periphery from the position where it was thrown in. Further, the diffusion is substantially stopped with the solidification of the transparent soap base 1a, because the molten transparent soap base 1a gradually solidifies from the wall surface side of the container 10 toward the center. Therefore, in the state where the entire transparent soap base 1a in the container 1 is solidified and solidified, the dye introduced inside the container 10 spreads to the peripheral portion around the position where it is introduced, and The color gradually becomes lighter toward the portion, and a blur-like portion is formed on the peripheral portion.

After the pigment is added to the inner transparent soap base 1c,
The portion of the inner transparent soap base 1c into which the pigment has been added may be stretched with a rod or the like, or the entire inner transparent soap base 1c may be stirred. For example, by stretching with a rod or the like, the pigment can be slenderly coordinated at an appropriate position in the inner transparent soap material 1c, and by stirring, the pigment can be instantly distributed over a wide area in the inner transparent soap material 1c. Can be ranked. In the case of a dye, it diffuses from the coordinated portion and spreads to the peripheral portion. Therefore, by operating with a rod-shaped body or the like, the pigment can be arranged at an arbitrary position and shape in the inner transparent soap base 1c, and an appropriate pattern can be drawn.

On the other hand, when the pattern portion 4 is composed of a plurality of portions 4a and 4b of different colors, first, the molten transparent soap base 1a is put in the container 10 as shown in FIG.
In a molten or gelled state in which the outer transparent soap substrate 1b is solidified and the inner transparent soap substrate 1c is not yet solidified, the pigment is added to the outer peripheral side of the inner transparent soap substrate 1c and left to stand for a while. The outer peripheral side containing the dye in 1c is solidified. Then, while the inner side is not solidified, pigments of different colors are further added to solidify.
When forming the pattern portion 4 of three or more colors, similarly, the pattern portion 4 may be sequentially poured into the outer peripheral side of the unsolidified transparent soap base to be solidified. If you do this,
Dyes of different colors, which are sequentially added, are mixed at the boundary and become blurred, but the whole is not mixed as in the case of sequentially adding them in a molten state, and the pattern portion 4 in which parts of different colors are adjacent to each other is formed. Can be formed.

The method for cooling the molten transparent soap base 1a contained in the container 10 is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, air-cooled by leaving it in the air or water-cooled by putting the container 1 in a low temperature region such as water. You may do so. When cooling with water,
Since the coagulation rate is increased, the time taken for the dye to diffuse is reduced, the spread can be prevented in a short time, and the range of the dye can be easily adjusted. Therefore, it is preferable when the pattern portion 4 is formed only in a limited narrow area. Furthermore, water cooling and air cooling may be combined, for example, after water cooling, the container 1 may be taken out of the water when the transparent soap base on the wall surface side of the container 1 is solidified, and thereafter air cooled.

Further, the molten transparent soap base 1a in the container 10 is air-cooled, and the upper end surface side of the transparent soap base 1a in the container 10 is solidified at about the same time as the wall surface portion of the container 10 to form a thin film. In the case of forming the outer transparent soap base of No. 1, when cooling, for example, the opening 10a of the container 10 is covered with a lid,
Alternatively, the upper end surface of the transparent soap base 1a in the container 10 may be directly covered with a covering member, and a means for slowing the cooling rate of the upper end surface may be provided by applying hot air only to the upper end surface. Alternatively, the pigment may be added to the inner transparent soap base after the thin film-shaped outer transparent soap base at the solidified upper end is removed.

The dye is not limited to the method of adding it when the molten transparent soap base obtained by saponification or neutralization is cooled and solidified. For example, the solidified transparent soap main body is heated again. Alternatively, it may be partially or wholly melted and charged when cooling it.

Further, the transparent soap main body 1 is not limited to a colorless and transparent form, but the whole is made of an arbitrary one color, and the dyes of different colors are added to form the pattern portion 4. You can In this case, if a dye of an arbitrary color is added to the molten transparent soap substrate before cooling, it is diffused throughout, and the molten transparent soap substrate 1a of one color can be easily obtained. Then, by adding a pigment to this transparent soap base 1a during cooling as described above, a pattern portion 4 of a different color is formed on a part of the transparent soap body 1 which is entirely made of one color. You can get what was done.

Although the pigments and dyes can be used as they are, for example, an appropriate amount of the pigment is mixed with water, or an appropriate amount of the dye is dissolved into an aqueous solution, or the pigment is mixed with an aqueous solution containing the dye. Alternatively, this may be added to a molten transparent soap base. Furthermore, the transparent soap body 1
Separately from the transparent soap body 1, a molten transparent soap base formed so as to have a specific gravity different from that of the transparent soap body is colored with a pigment or a dye.
You may make it arrange | position a pigment or dye in the transparent soap base 1a by throwing in this molten transparent soap base 1a which was colored during this cooling. By doing this, for example, if the specific gravity of the separately formed molten transparent soap base 5 is made larger than the specific gravity of the molten transparent soap base 1a forming the transparent soap main body 1, FIG.
As shown in Fig. 4, when the molten transparent soap base 1c that forms the transparent soap body 1 is charged, the separately formed molten transparent soap base 5 is coordinated to the lower side of the inner transparent soap base 1c due to the difference in specific gravity. , Solidify with cooling in that state. Therefore, in this way, the pigment or dye can be coordinated to the core of the transparent soap main body 1, and the pattern portion having different colors can be formed. The specific gravity can be changed by changing the composition of the transparent soap base by increasing or decreasing any of alcohol, glycol or saccharide.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, an aqueous solution containing the above dye or the like or a separately formed melted transparent soap base 5 is melted through a straw-shaped elongated tubular body 6 into a melted state. It may be forcibly sent to the lower side of the inner transparent soap substrate 1c. Also by doing this, the inner transparent soap base 1c
Since the lower part of the transparent soap solidifies in a short time, the pigment or dye can be coordinated to the core of the transparent soap body 1.

Put in the inside from a and air cool. The inner transparent soap base 1 on the upper center side of the transparent soap base 1a in the container 10
When c is in a molten state and the outer transparent soap base 1b on the wall surface side is solidified, an aqueous solution 2 prepared by dissolving a dye in water at a ratio of 1 to 2% by weight in a substantially purple color is used as a molten inner transparent soap. It is put into the base material 1c and stirred. After that, the whole is left to cool and solidify. Then, this is taken out from the container 10. As a result, a cylindrical transparent soap block having a colored portion 4 composed of a dark purple portion in the upper center portion and a blur-like portion in which the color gradually becomes lighter is obtained (dotted line in FIG. 1). ). After that, the outer peripheral portion of the transparent soap block was cut with a knife or the like or embossed to obtain a transparent soap for ornaments imitating a crystal shown in FIG. Since the obtained transparent soap for ornaments is wholly cooled and solidified, the boundary between the colored portion 4 and the transparent soap main body 1 does not appear, and it becomes blurry, which makes the crystal look natural. It was

As shown in FIG. 4, the entire molten transparent soap base 1a in a molten state is grayed by adding a dye to the molten transparent soap base 1a in a saponified state. It is put in from the portion 10a and air-cooled. Then, when the inner transparent soap substrate 1c on the upper center side of the transparent soap substrate 1a in the container 10 is in a molten state and the outer transparent soap substrate 1b on the wall surface side is solidified, the dye is preliminarily in a proportion of 10 to 11% by weight. Is dissolved in water to prepare a white color, and an aqueous solution 2a containing a small amount of black iron oxide is added to the outer peripheral side of the inner transparent soap base 1c, and that portion is extended in the front-rear direction with a rod-shaped body. Then, the outer peripheral side of the transparent soap base 1c is solidified therein, and the inner side thereof is not solidified, and 20 to 2 is previously prepared.
An aqueous solution 2b in which a dye is dissolved in water to prepare a brown color is added at a ratio of 1% by weight, and the portion is extended in the front-rear direction with a rod-shaped body. Then, after the whole is cooled and solidified, it is taken out from the container 10. Thus, as shown in FIG. 2, a transparent soap block having a colored portion 4 having a brown colored portion 4a in the upper center portion and a white colored portion 4b with black spots on the side thereof is obtained. . The boundary between the respective portions 4a and 4b of the colored portion 4 has a blurring appearance in which the color gradually becomes lighter. Then, the outer peripheral portion of the transparent soap block was cut with a knife or the like, or embossed to obtain a transparent soap for ornaments imitating a gemstone as shown in FIG.

[0023]

As described above, the transparent soap for decorative articles of the present invention is
Since the transparent soap body is integrally formed with a pattern part with different colors, the boundary between the transparent soap body and the pattern part does not appear, and it can be made continuous like blurring, imitating rough stones etc. Can be made suitable for the ornaments.

Further, in the method for producing a transparent soap for decorative articles of the present invention, a pattern portion can be formed by coordinating a pigment different from that of the transparent soap main body at an arbitrary position of the transparent soap main body.
