Poly aluminum chloride (PAC) is used within the cosmetic industry as an antiperspirant active ingredient and as a coagulant in the treatment of water for cosmetic production. In cosmetics, particularly in antiperspirant formulations, PAC acts to reduce perspiration and consequently body odor by temporarily plugging the sweat glands. The role of PAC in the cosmetic chemical market intersects with considerations related to both efficacy and safety, as consumer preferences trend towards products with less irritancy and potential health risks. The market dynamics for cosmetic-grade PAC are influenced by regulatory frameworks governing the use of chemicals in personal care products, advancements in chemical processing technology, and the industry's adaptation to changing consumer demands for more natural and environmentally friendly products. Some companies operating in the market for poly aluminum chloride include Kemira, GEO Specialty Chemicals, and USALCO. These companies offer a range of PAC products suited for various applications, including those meeting the specific needs of the cosmetics and personal care industry. They focus on manufacturing high-purity and quality-controlled products that adhere to the stringent regulations and standards set by health and safety authorities and cosmetic ingredient review panels.
