INTRODUCTION

Gumamela is a shrub that is highly cultivated as an ornamental plant in the Philippines. It is the local term used in the Philippines for Hibiscus, China Rose, and Shoeflower. This plant has a scientific name known as Hibiscus rosasinensis. Usually, this ornamental plant grows from one meter up to four meters high. Its flower may come in various colors similar to orange, white, pink, yellow, red, purple, and other color combinations.

Its leaves are glossy green, ovate, pointed, which extends its length to about seven to twelve centimeter. Its flowers are solitary, axillary, and quite huge which extends its length to about ten centimeters, and twelve centimeters in diameter. The petals are commonly obovate, rounded tip, and imbricate. The stamens are in long and slender tube form enclosing the entire style of the pistil and protruding out of the corolla.

When we were kids, we used to drink its sweet nectar and eat its petals and then we would gather its petals to make bubbles. Gumamela has a lot of use, it can be used as medicine for some certain diseases or illness and its flowers are oftenly used to form bubbles so we could also make a dishwashing liquid out of it. By this research study we will be studying the utilization and effectiveness of the plant gumamela in the production of dishwashing liquid.

Washing dishes is one of the major house chores our parents are facing every day. One of hardest part of washing dishes are the tough stains and grease that is all over the common kitchen tools we use in our everyday life. Dishwashing liquid is a great help to minimize the time of removing those tough stains and grease on our kitchen tools and it totally removes all the dirt of common kitchen tools. Imagine yourself washing the dishes without using any dishwashing liquid, how will you easily remove those stains and grease? This study shows how a simple organic material that can be easily found elsewhere can be turned into something as useful as dishwashing liquid.

Dishwashing liquid (BrE: washing-up liquid), known as dishwashing soap and dish soap, is a detergent used to assist in dishwashing. It is usually a highly-foaming mixture of surfactants with low skin irritation, and is primarily used for hand washing of glasses, plates, cutlery, and cooking utensils in a sink or bowl. In addition to its primary use, dishwashing liquid also has various informal applications, such as for creating bubbles, clothes washing and cleaning oil-affected birds. Laundry detergent, or washing powder, is a type of detergent (cleaning agent) that is added for cleaning laundry. In common usage, "detergent" refers to mixtures of chemical compounds including alkylbenzenesulfonates, which are similar to soap but are less affected by hard water. In most household contexts, the term detergent refers to laundry detergent vs hand soap or other types of cleaning agents.
