TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Components: The dialkyl carbonate is dioctyl carbonate and/or dialkyl carbonate. The propellant is selected from dimethyl ether, carbon dioxide, fluorochlorohydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, pentane, butane and propane and/or their isomers. Preferred Composition: The formulation may also contain lecithins, phospholipids, antioxidants, antiperspirants, tyrosine inhibitors, solubilizers, preservatives and especially ultraviolet light protection factors, self-tanning agents, deodorants, antiscaling agents, biogenic agents, insect repellents, colors and perfume oils. .It contains 1-50 wt.% (I), 3-95 wt.% propellant, 0-30 wt.% ancillaries and additives and water to 100 wt.%.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - POLYMERS - Preferred Composition: The formulation may also contain polymers, silicone compounds and film formers. SPECIFIC COMPOUNDS - Specific examples of the propellant are dimethyl ether, carbon dioxide, pentane, butane and propane.    EXAMPLE - Aerosols (A) contained Cetiol CC (RTM; di-n-octyl carbonate) (IA) and butane (II) in 50:50 or 15:85 weight ratio, 25 wt.% (IA), 72 wt.% (II) and 3 wt.% fragrance, 43 wt.% (IA), 55 wt.% (II) and 2 wt.% aluminum chlorohydrate (III) or 20 wt.% (IA), 75.9 wt.% (II), 1 wt.% fragrance, 3 wt.% (III) and 0.1 wt.% chitosan. Controls contained (B) isopropyl myristate (IV) and (II) in 50:50 weight ratio or 20 wt.% (IV), 75.9 wt.% (II), 1 wt.% fragrance, 3 wt.% (III) and 0.1 wt.% chitosan; or (C) 25 wt.% di-n-octyl ether, 72 wt.% (II) and 3 wt.% fragrance. Solubilization of the aerosols was (A, B) good, (C) poor, and the feel on the skin (A) very dry, (B, C) dry. A deodorant spray contained 8 wt.% (IA), 3 wt.% (II), 4 wt.% Miglyol Gel B (RTM; caprylic/capric triglyceride, stearalkonium hectorite and propylene carbonate), 5 wt.% Cetiol OE (RTM; di-n-octyl ether), 6 wt.% Cetiol B (RTM; di-n-butyl adipate), 0.3 wt.% Hydagen DCMF (RTM; chitosan, 4% solution), 1 wt.% Profumo Moussage (RTM; perfume), 2 wt.% ethanol, 1.5 wt.% Hydagen CAT (RTM; triethyl citrate) and 69.2 wt.% propane/butane.
