Claims29
A gelled or solid antiperspirant composition comprising:
- (a) about 1% to about 40% by weight of an antiperspirant compound;
- (b) about 0.5% to about 10% by weight of a borate crosslinker;
- (c) about 0.005% to about 10% by weight of a hydrophilic polymeric binder selected from the group consisting of a hydrophilic polyurethane having a weight average molecular weight of at least about 5,000;
- and
- (d) a carrier selected from the group consisting of water, a water-soluble solvent, and mixtures thereof;
- wherein the antiperspirant composition has a pH of about 2 to about 6.

A gelled or solid antiperspirant composition comprising:
- (a) about 5% to about 30% by weight of an aluminum halide, an aluminum hydroxyhalide, a zirconyl oxyhalide, a zirconyl hydroxyhalide, an aluminum zirconium glycinate, or a mixture thereof;
- (b) about 1% to about 7% by weight of boric acid, sodium tetraborate, or a mixture thereof;
- (c) about 0.01% to about 5% by weight of a hydrophilic polymeric binder selected from the group consisting of a hydrophilic polyurethane having a weight average molecular weight of about 20,000 to about 300,000;
- and
- (d) a carrier selected from the group consisting of water, propylene glycol, ethanol, and mixtures thereof.
