Deodorant/Antiperspirant

Nanomaterials can impart antibacterial and anti-odor functionality on human skin in powder, gel, stick or spray underarm products that go on smooth without plugging the spray nozzle, caking or staining while maintaining clarity. The market trends for deodorants and antiperspirants is toward clear and highly effective formulations that are mild and non-irritating. NanoGard^® zinc oxide or silver doped zinc oxide appear to be naturals for this application. Our NanoGard^® zinc oxide, which is produced under cGMP conditions and is FDA approved for use as an active ingredient in personal care products, can provide effective odor and bacterial control while maintaining clarity in silky-smooth, non-sticky formulations. The anti-irritant properties of zinc oxide are an added benefit! Silver doped zinc oxide may offer an enhancement in odor fighting antibacterial properties.
