Aluminum/Calcium/Manganese Oxide is a chemical compound, the product obtained by calcining calcium oxide, alumina and manganese.

The name describes the structure of the molecule:

• Aluminum. A compound of aluminum is used as a raw material for aluminum oxide in Aluminum/Calcium/Manganese Oxide. This may include the use of aluminum metal or aluminum compounds such as aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)₃) or aluminum sulfate (Al₂(SO₄)₃).
• Calcium. Calcium is a raw material that contributes to the formation of calcium oxide in Aluminum/Calcium/Manganese Oxide. A calcium compound, such as calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) or calcium oxide (CaO), is used as a reagent to provide the necessary calcium.
• Manganese. Manganese is another raw material for manganese oxide in Aluminum/Calcium/Manganese Oxide. Manganese metal or manganese compounds such as manganese dioxide (MnO2) or manganese sulfate (MnSO₄) can be used.

The synthesis process takes place in different steps:

• Preparation of reagents. The necessary reagents for the synthesis of aluminum, calcium, and manganese oxide are collected and prepared. This may involve the heat treatment of materials containing aluminum, calcium, and manganese to obtain the desired forms.
• Accurate measurement of reagents. The reagents are precisely dosed according to the required proportions for the synthesis of aluminum, calcium, and manganese oxide.
• Mixing of reagents. The reagents are mixed in a reactive system, such as a chemical reactor, to promote the necessary chemical reactions for the formation of the oxide.
• Control of process conditions. The process conditions, such as temperature and pressure, are controlled and adjusted to ensure that the reactions occur as desired.
• Chemical reaction. The reagents react with each other to form the desired aluminum, calcium, and manganese oxide.
• Cooling and isolation of the product. After the reaction, the product is cooled and isolated from the reactive system.
• Characterization of the product.The product is characterized using analytical methods, such as chemical and physical analyses, to determine its composition, structure, and properties.
• Packaging of the compound. Once the synthesis and characterization are completed, the compound is appropriately packaged for distribution and use.

What it is used for and where

Cosmetics

Colorant to avoid. It is an ingredient that makes the final product more attractive from an aesthetic point of view, but can pose a potential health risk with undesirable side effects especially when used continuously as it can be absorbed through the skin or mucous membranes.

Safety

Aluminium can interferes with different biological processes (cellular oxidative stress, calcium metabolism, etc.), so it can induce toxic effects in different organs and systems: although aluminium can interfere with several biological processes, the nervous system is the main target of its toxicity.
