Ethylhexyl Triazone

Ethylhexyl triazone is an effective UV filter used as an ingredient in skincare and photoprotective products. It absorbs harmful UV rays to protect the skin against photoaging and sunburn. It is characterized by high photostability and compatibility with different formulations. Thus, making it a leading choice for use in sun protection.

As a leading ethylhexyl supplier in China, Baisifu provide top-quality ethylhexyl for sale with peak protection at 314nm. We offer the highest photostable absorption among available commercial UV-B filters. It also has light texture that allows easy incorporation into range of products without compromising effectiveness. You can assure that it provides reliable sun protection without irritation.

CAS Number: 88122-99-0

Appearance:  White to light yellow powder

Common Benefits

Ethylhexyl Triazone is an oil-soluble UVA + UVB sunscreen agent.

• Strong UVB absorption capability, excellent photostability, and water resistance; good affinity with skin keratin proteins.
• Effective absorption wavelength range: 290-320 nm.
• Generally safe for pregnant women and non-comedogenic.
• High A1/1 value, requiring only a low concentration to achieve a high sun protection factor (SPF) in sunscreen formulations.

Technical Specifications

Wide Range of Applications

Ethylhexyltriazoneplays a critical role in many cosmetic product formulations. By investing in high-grade ethylhexyltriazone, you can venture into many products like:

• Makeup: It offers a solid base for UV protection to support longer-lasting formulations. Additionally, it protects against UV-induced instability, therefore, ensuring consistent performance within makeup systems.
• Skincare products: It enhances protective qualities in formulations that are exposed to sunlight. The stability of the system allows it to be effectively incorporated with emulsions, serums, or gels. This ensures a longer preservation of product integrity without sacrificing the desired texture or overall effectiveness.
• Sun-care products: It provides extremely high UV-B absorbing capability. Photostability and water resistance enhance the performance of the formulation even further. Its inclusion adds more stability to these products when used alongside other sunscreens.
• Haircare formulations: Protects hair systems against UV-induced color fading. It helps maintain color vibrancy in dyed hair systems. This helps maintain the performance and structural stability of the hair systems when exposed to outdoor light.
• Daily moisturizers: It provides UV protection without changing the formulation texture. Being compatible with hydrating bases, it ensures smooth incorporation. This protects day creams while maintaining their softness and spreadability.
• Lip care products: It acts as a protector against photodegradation of oils and pigments in lip balms. Its stable integration allows formulations to retain their protective capacity under sunlight. This improves durability and product performance over changing conditions.

Functions in a Formulation

Throughout our cosmetic ingredient production cycles, we test ethylhexyltriazoneto ensure it meets the intended functions in cosmetic products.

For instance, you may want to introduce products with UV filters, improved texture and better UV absorption. Ideally, this cosmetic ingredient will perform these key functions in any formulation:

• Stabilizer: It serves to add stability to emulsions under UV stress. This helps preserve the intended consistency of the formulation by limiting the extent of photodegradation.
• UV-absorber:It is an excellent absorber of high-intensity UV-B radiation. Its molecular design optimizes absorption efficiency at minimum concentration levels. This efficiency helps to increase the protection offered by sunscreens in a mixture without the addition of higher concentrations of the additive.
• UV filter: It is a broad-spectrum filter with targeted strength in the UV-B spectrum. It provides strengthened protection when used alongside other filters. The combination provides balanced protection across all wavelengths of radiation without compromising product stability.
• Photostability enhancer: It reduces the chances of degradation for other UV filters. Its inclusion reduces breakdown of the less stable molecules. This ensures maximum protection overall while ensuring long-term formulation performance.
• Texture Preserver: It inhibits undesirable crystallization in oil-based systems, thereby ensuring homogeneous distribution and smooth application. Such uniform dispersion maintains sensory properties of the formulation during its life span.
• Water resistance enhancer: It is used to increase water resistance of sunscreen systems. It is hydrophobic in nature, therefore, it promotes adhesion to the skin’s surface.

Recommended Usage Level

Ethylhexyltriazone shows intense UV-B absorption at very low levels. In sunscreens, it is generally used up to 5%, according to global regulatory guidelines. This level gives good protection while being entirely within safety regulations.

Lower concentrations of 0.5–2%, are applied in daily use skincare or make-up. These formulations need UV protection but not unnecessary sunscreen bulk. Concentrations of this type give photostability advantages without interfering with the texture of light gels or emulsions.

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient works by absorbing high-energy UV-B radiation. The absorbed radiation energy is actually converted into harmless forms of energy, predominantly heat. It has a molecular structure bearing conjugated aromatic systems that adsorb the radiation in a very narrow band with peak intensity.

With complementary filters like avobenzone or titanium dioxide, it provides broad-spectrum protection. The combined process ensure absorption over the UV-A and UV-B spectrum. In doing so, it stabilizes the formulation and offers them constant protection in sunlight.

Formulation Guidelines

Ethylhexyltriazone is soluble in oils and, therefore, must be dispersed in the oil phase prior to emulsification. Adequate mixing is necessary to avoid the product forming crystals or becoming unstable during storage. Mild warmth also promotes solubilization, especially with other lipophilic actives.

With the addition of antioxidants and stabilizers, photostability is improved and the formula is also protected. It is also compatible with emollients that maintain texture and aesthetic characteristics. A balanced oil-water ratio guarantees even texture and compatibility with other cosmetic bases.

Certifications

Ethylhexyltriazone is in conformity with EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009. The regulation permits up to 5% concentration. Such conformity ensures compliance with safety requirements for sunscreens and skin care products in regulated markets.

It is also registrable under INCI as EthylhexylTriazone. CAS number and EC number are provided with supplied specifications at all times. Our ingredient is also manufactured under ISO 9001 quality standards with complete documentation such as MSDS, COA and technical data sheets.
