Sunsafe-EHT / Ethylhexyl Triazone

Short Description:

A UVB filter. Sunsafe-EHT is a highly effective UVB filter with an exceptionally high absorptivity of over 1500 at 314nm. Because of its high A1/1 value, only small concentrations are required in cosmetic suncare preparations, to achieve a high SPF value. The polar nature of Sunsafe EHT gives it good affinity to the keratin in the skin, so that formulations in which it is used are particularly water-resistant. This property is further enhanced by its complete insolubility in water.

Application

Sunsafe-EHT is an oil-soluble absorber with the strong UV-B absorption capacity. It has strong light stability, strong water resistance, and has a good affinity for skin keratin.Sunsafe-EHT is a new type of ultraviolet absorber developed  in recent years. It has a large molecular structure and high ultraviolet absorption efficiency.

(1)Sunsafe-EHT is a highly effective UV-B filter with an exceptionally high absorptivity of over 1500 at 314nm. Because of its high A1/1 value, only small concentrations are required in cosmetic suncare preparations, to achieve a high SPF value.

(2)The polar nature of Sunsafe-EHT gives it good affinity to the keratin in the skin, so that formulations in which it is used are particularly water-resistant. This property is further enhanced by its complete insolubility in water.

(3)Sunsafe-EHT dissolves readily in polar oils.

(4)Sunsafe-EHT can crystallize after prolonged storage, as a result of supersaturation and if the pH of the formulating falls below 5.

(5)Sunsafe-EHT is also very stable towards light. It remains practically unchanged, even when it is exposed to intense radiation.

(6)Sunsafe-EHT is usually dissolved in the oily phase of the emulsion.
