Benefits of sweat and armpit odor, analysis of the efficacy of methenamine

If a person has body odor, then he or she will definitely not be able to "survive" in society. Just imagine, who can be happy if there is always someone with odor around? Especially people with body odor, it is really annoying. However, with the continuous development of medicine, there are many ways to treat such diseases, such as methenamine solution, which is very effective in relieving body odor. So, does it have other effects?

Hexamethylenetetramine, also known as hexamethylenetetramine, is a polycyclic heterocyclic compound with a structure similar to that of adamantane, with a CAS number of 100-97-0 and a molecular formula of C6H₁₆N₄. Hexamethylenetetramine is a white crystal that can be prepared by the reaction of formaldehyde and ammonia. The molecule contains four triazacyclohexane rings fused to each other. Limitedly soluble in water, freely soluble in most organic solvents. Hexamethylenetetramine has a wide range of applications. It can be used as a raw material for organic synthesis, analytical chemical reagent, antibiotic, fuel, and has many uses in chemical production. Hexamethylenetetramine reacts with fuming nitric acid to produce highly explosive "cyclone dynamite" RDX.

Product Usage

Hexamethylenetetramine is mainly used as a curing agent for resins and plastics, a catalyst and foaming agent for amino plastics, an accelerator for rubber vulcanization (accelerator H), and an anti-shrinkage agent for textiles.

Hexamethylenetetramine is a raw material for organic synthesis and is used to produce chloramphenicol in the pharmaceutical industry.

Hexamethylenetetramine can be used as a disinfectant for the urinary system. It has no antibacterial effect itself and is effective against Gram-negative bacteria. Its 20% solution can be used to treat axillary odor, sweaty feet, tinea corporis, etc. It can be mixed with sodium hydroxide and sodium phenol to be used as a phosgene absorber in gas masks.

Used to make pesticides and insecticides. Hexamethylenetetramine reacts with fuming nitric acid to produce highly explosive cyclone dynamite, referred to as RDX.

Hexamethylenetetramine can also be used as a reagent for the determination of bismuth, indium, manganese, cobalt, thorium, platinum, magnesium, lithium, copper, uranium, beryllium, tellurium, bromide, iodide, etc. and as a chromatographic analysis reagent, etc. It is a commonly used military fuel.

It is used as a curing agent for resins and plastics, a vulcanization accelerator for rubber (accelerator H), an anti-shrinkage agent for textiles, and is also used in the manufacture of fungicides, explosives, etc. When used as medicine, after oral administration, it decomposes in acidic urine to produce formaldehyde, which has a bactericidal effect and is used for mild urinary tract infections; it is used externally to treat ringworm, stop sweating, and treat axillary odor. Mixed with alkali and sodium phenol, it is used as a phosgene absorbent in gas masks.
