JPH03220118A - Agent for preventing axillary odor - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain an agent for preventing axillary odor suppressing sweating by astrictive action, effectively restricting axillary odor, inexpensively obtainable and producible, having high safety to human body, readily usable by simple treatment, comprising alum as a main component. CONSTITUTION:An agent for preventing axillary odor comprising potassium alum or aluminum alum or an alum such as calcined burnt alum prepared by removal of water of crystallization from these alums under heating as a main component. The alum can form an agent for preventing axillary odor by itself alone, optionally mixed with other stable components in response to necessity of handling such as ready application, processed into liquid, creamy or powdery state and used. When the agent is used, underarm is cleaned by bathing, etc., and the agent is applied. In the case of creamy state, the agent is used with an applicator or fingers, in the case of liquid, the agent is impregnated into cotton, etc., and then applied to underarm by coating. In order to maintain inhibitory effects on axillary odor, preferably the agent is applied after bathing every day.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to an armpit odor inhibitor for preventing armpit odor that causes bad odor in the armpits.

[Prior Art 1] Conventionally, there are two types of underarm odor preventive agents: those containing an astringent that suppresses sweat secretion, and those containing a bactericidal agent that prevents sweat from decomposing and turning into a bad odor.

Various products are available in the form of sticks, creams, powders, liquids, and sprays.

In the case of astringents, particularly strong astringents are no longer used as the main ingredient, and zinc sulfophosphate and the like are now used. As for disinfectants, Irgarasan and C are used as main agents.
F, TCC, etc. are used.

Regarding the state in which they are provided, liquid products are made by dissolving each drug in water or alcohol, cream products are made using anhydrous oil-based cream if the drug breaks down in water, and emulsifying cream if the drug is stable in water. Finish. Stick-shaped products are made by mixing a chemical with an oil-based base material like a stick, while powder products are made by mixing a drug like powdered powder.

In addition, in liquid form, which is configured to be sprayed, an alcoholic aqueous solution of the drug is used as the stock solution, and Freon gas is added to this, which is then filled into a can so that it can be sprayed in the form of a mist. be.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] As mentioned above, there are various types of conventional armpit odor preventive agents, and they are provided in various forms. Each has certain effects, but all are expensive. It can also be dangerous if used incorrectly.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to obtain an armpit odor preventive agent that has a sufficient effect of preventing armpit odor, is safe, and can be obtained at low cost.

[Means to solve the problem] The gist of the present invention is An anti-armpit odor agent whose main ingredient is alum.

The above-mentioned alums may include any of the alums included in the concept in a broad sense.

For example, ammonium alum, potassium alum, or others can be employed. It is also possible to use roasted alum, which has been heated to lose its crystallization water, as the main ingredient.

The alums mentioned above can constitute an armpit odor inhibitor by themselves. However, depending on handling needs, such as ease of application, alums may be mixed with other components to which they are stable. That is, it can be mixed with various other ingredients that do not have any adverse effects and processed into a liquid, cream, or powder form and provided.

The above-mentioned roasted alum is a white porous granule as it is, but it is also very safe in itself, so it is convenient to provide it as is in order to provide it at a low price. Of course, if particularly necessary, it can also be provided in the above-mentioned liquid or cream form.

[Function] Since the present invention is as described above, it can be easily used in the following manner.

How to use: Clean the affected area (underarm area) by taking a bath, etc. before applying. If it is a cream, apply it with a cotton swab or fingers, or if it is a liquid, apply it to the armpit by soaking it in cotton or by spraying it on. If it is in the form of a stick, you will apply it by pressing it and moving it. That is, it can be easily used in the same manner as conventional armpit odor preventive agents.

If roasted alum is to be provided in the form of granules, dissolve an appropriate amount in room-temperature water and apply this to the armpits. Of course, as mentioned above, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the armpit area by taking a bath or the like beforehand.

Then, due to the astringent action of the alums, the blood vessels in the affected area, ie, the armpit where it is applied, are constricted, suppressing the secretion of sweat from sweat glands such as avocrine glands, and drying out the affected area. Since the secretion of secretions from the apocrine glands is suppressed, the occurrence of bad odors due to the decomposition of fatty acids contained in the secretions is naturally suppressed. And this effect continues for a relatively long time. However, it is most appropriate to apply it every day after bathing.

Moreover, alums are extremely safe and do not cause any harm to the body.

[Example] An embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

In this example, burnt alum was used as the main ingredient of the armpit odor preventive agent.

By a common technique, a mixed aqueous solution of aluminum sulfate and potassium sulfate is concentrated to produce potassium alum,
This is heated to foam and lose crystallization water, producing white, porous baked alum.

In this example, the above-mentioned white and porous granules are used alone as an armpit odor preventive agent. In particular, it does not require any mixing and can therefore be produced very cheaply.

These granules are stable and do not harm other components, so they can be easily stored in plastic containers or the like.

Since this embodiment is configured as described above,
It can be easily used as follows.

How to use: Clean the affected area (underarm area) by taking a bath, etc. before applying.

Dissolve about a spoonful in water at about 15°C to 20°C to make a saturated solution, and apply this to your armpits. The method of application can be the same as conventional liquid methods, such as soaking cotton in this and applying it.

In this way, when applied to the armpit after cleaning, the astringent action of burnt alum constricts the blood vessels in the area where it is applied, suppresses the secretion of sweat from sweat glands such as avocrine glands, and dries the area. It will be necessary to do so. As a result, the secretion from the avocrine glands is suppressed, and as a result, the fatty acids contained in the secretions are almost completely eliminated. Therefore, the generation of bad odor due to its decomposition is naturally suppressed. And this effect continues for a relatively long time. However, it is important to take a bath every day and continue applying the product afterwards.

Moreover, the above-mentioned roasted alum is very safe and has no danger of causing any harm to the body.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, perspiration can be suppressed due to the astringent action of alum, which is the main ingredient, and through this, armpit odor can be effectively prevented. Furthermore, since alums, which are the main ingredients, can be obtained at low cost, they can be manufactured at low cost. In addition, since alums are highly safe for the human body, they can constitute a safe armpit odor preventive agent.

Furthermore, it has the advantage of being simple and easy to use.
