Aluminum zirconium octachlorohydrex gly

Aluminum zirconium octachlorohydrex gly is a coordination complex of aluminum zirconium octachlorohydrate and glycine. It is an active ingredient in many over-the-counter antiperspirant products, used to reduce sweating by diffusing into sweat pores and forming a temporary plug that prevents perspiration from reaching the skin surface. The compound may also absorb moisture in its anhydrous form. It is approved for use in concentrations up to 20% in antiperspirants and acts locally on the sweat glands without systemic absorption[1][2][6].
