DI-T-BUTYL HYDROXYPHENYLAMINO BISOCTYLTHIOTRIAZINE

Description

DI-T-BUTYL HYDROXYPHENYLAMINO BISOCTYLTHIOTRIAZINE is a cutting-edge UV filter developed for advanced sunscreen formulations. This organic compound belongs to the triazine class of sunscreen agents and offers broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB radiation. Its chemical structure allows for efficient absorption of harmful UV rays, converting them into harmless heat energy.

The ingredient demonstrates exceptional photostability, maintaining its protective properties even after prolonged sun exposure. It exhibits low skin penetration, reducing the risk of systemic absorption and potential irritation. DI-T-BUTYL HYDROXYPHENYLAMINO BISOCTYLTHIOTRIAZINE is particularly effective in combination with other UV filters, enhancing overall sun protection factor (SPF) and providing synergistic benefits.

This UV filter is oil-soluble, making it suitable for various cosmetic formulations, including lotions, creams, and oil-based sunscreens. It contributes to improved texture and spreadability in sunscreen products. The compound's molecular size and structure also aid in reducing the whitening effect often associated with mineral sunscreens. Safety studies have shown a favorable toxicological profile, with minimal skin sensitization potential. Its efficacy and safety make it a valuable ingredient in modern photoprotective skincare products.
