Benzophenone-3

Short Description:

Benzophenone-3(UV9), often labeled as oxybenzone in sunscreen products, is a widely used chemical compound in cosmetics and sunscreens. This organic UV filter serves as a sunblock agent, absorbing and dissipating harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, particularly UVB and some UVA radiation. Benzophenone-3 helps protect the skin from sunburn and UV-induced damage, making it a common ingredient in sunscreens, lotions, and lip balms.

    Benzophenone-3/UV-9 is a high-efficienct UV radiation absorbing agent, capable of effectively absorbing UV radiation of 290-400 nm wavelength ,but it almost does not absorb visible light, particularly applicable to light-colored transparent products. It is well stable to light and heat, not decomposable below 200°C, applicable to paint and various plastic products,particular effective to polyvinyl chloirde, polystyrene, polyurethane, acrylic resin, light-colored transparent furniture, as well as to cosmetics.

    Benzophenone-3 BP-3 UV9

    Benzophenone-3/Oxybenzone is used in plastics as an ultraviolet light absorber and stabilizer. It is used, along with other benzophenones, in sunscreens, hair sprays, and cosmetics because they help prevent potential damage from sunlight exposure. It is also found, in concentrations up to 1%, in nail polishes.Benzophenone-3/Oxybenzone can also be used as a photostabilizer for synthetic resins. Benzophenones can leach from food packaging, and are widely used as photo-initiators used to start a chemical that dries ink faster. As a sunscreen, it provides broad-spectrum ultraviolet coverage, including UVB and short-wave UVA rays. It is one of the most widely used organic UVA filters in sunscreens today. It is also found in nail polish, fragrances, hairspray, and cosmetics as a photostabilizer.
