Abstract:
The aluminum and hexamethylenetetramine (Al-HMT) complex is obtained by mixing a source of aluminum and HMT and optionally leaving the resulting mixture to sit. The Al-HMT complex has deodorant and therapeutic properties, and it is useful for elaborating cosmetic and pharmaceutical compositions. Furthermore, said Al-HMT complex has the capacity to trap substances which can subsequently be released, it therefore being useful as a carrier of said substances.
