Abstract

Abstract Alcohol soluble complexes of basic aluminum bromides may be prepared by adding zirconyl or zinc bromide or chloride, or zirconyl hydroxychloride or hydroxybromide, or mixtures of the above chlorides and bromides to an aqueous solution of five-sixths basic aluminum bromide, and drying the resulting mixture to a substantially friable solid, such as by vacuum or spray drying. The complexes preferably have an Al/Zn or Al/Zr mol ratio of about 3:1 to 20:1, and the complex solids preferably contain about 15 to 30 weight percent water by Karl Fischer analysis. Such complex solids have a high degree of solubility in anhydrous alcohol and a high compatibility with halogenated hydrocarbons. These properties make the complexes suitable for aerosol formulations and particularly antiperspirant compositions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 89 words
A method of preparing alcohol soluble solid complexes of five-sixths basic aluminum bromides comprising the steps of providing an aqueous solution of five-sixths basic aluminum bromide having the general empirical formula: Al.sub.2 (OH).sub.6.sub.-x Br.sub.x in which x equals about 0.9 to 1.2; adding to said aqueous solution a substance selected from the group consisting of zinc chloride, zinc bromide, and combinations of either or both of said zinc halides with zirconyl chloride, zirconyl bromide, zirconyl hydroxychloride and/or zirconyl hydroxybromide; and drying the resulting mixture to a substantially friable solid.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 89 words
A method of preparing alcohol soluble solid complexes of five-sixths basic aluminum bromides comprising the steps of providing an aqueous solution of five-sixths basic aluminum bromide having the general empirical formula: Al.sub.2 (OH).sub.6.sub.-x Br.sub.x in which x equals about 0.9 to 1.2; adding to said aqueous solution a substance selected from the group consisting of zinc chloride, zinc bromide, and combinations of either or both of said zinc halides with zirconyl chloride, zirconyl bromide, zirconyl hydroxychloride and/or zirconyl hydroxybromide; and drying the resulting mixture to a substantially friable solid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
Alcohol soluble complex solids formed by the method of claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said mixture is dried to a water content of about 15 to 30 weight percent determined by Karl Fischer analysis and based on the total weight of the solid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
