TranslationsSaponification
saponification[sə‚pän·ə·fə′kā·shən] (chemistry) The process of converting chemicals into soap; involves the alkaline hydrolysis of a fat or oil, or the neutralization of a fatty acid. Saponification the hydrolysis of carboxylic and derivatives, including esters, nitriles, and amides, for example RCOOR’ + H2O → RCOOH + R’OH Saponification is widely used in industry to produce acids and alcohols. Higher aliphatic carboxylic acids, glycerol, soaps, and stearic acid are formed upon saponification of fats. saponificationThe conversion into soap which occurs when an alkali, such as the lime in cement, reacts with oils in paint; destroys the adhesion and strength of oil-based paint films.saponification
saponification [sah-pon″ĭ-fĭ-ka´shun] conversion of an oil or fat into a soap by combination with an alkali. In chemistry, the term now denotes the hydrolysis of an ester by an alkali, resulting in the production of a free alcohol and an alkali salt of the ester acid.sa·pon·i·fi·ca·tion (să-pon'i-fi-kā'shŭn), Conversion into soap, denoting the hydrolytic action of an alkali on fat, especially on triacylglycerols; in histochemistry, saponification is used to demethylate or reverse blockage of carboxylic acid groups, thus permitting basophilia to occur. [sapo- (sapon-) + L. facio, to make] sa·pon·i·fi·ca·tion (să-pon'i-fi-kā'shŭn) Conversion into soap, denoting the hydrolytic action of an alkali on fat, especially on triacylglycerols. [L. sapo- (sapon-), soap + L. facio, to make]saponification Hydrolysis of a fat by an alkali to form a soap and an alcohol, usually glycerol.sa·pon·i·fi·ca·tion (să-pon'i-fi-kā'shŭn) Conversion into soap.
