A UVB filter.
Sunsafe-ITZ is an effective UV-B sunscreen very soluble in cosmetic oils. Due to its high specific extinction and its excellent solubility is much more efficient than currently available UV filters. Sunsafe-ITZ can be dissolved in most cosmetic oils at very high concentration.
Sunsafe-ITZ is an effective UV-B sunscreen very soluble in cosmetic oils. Due to its high specific extinction and its excellent solubility is much more efficient than currently available UV filters.
For example, a sun protection O/W emulsion containing 2% of Sunsafe ITZ shows a SPF of 4 against a SPF of 2.5 obtained with an equal amount of Octyl Methoxycinnamate. Sunsafe-ITZ can be used in every cosmetic formulation containing a suitable lipidic phase, alone or in combination with one or more UV filters, such as:

Homosalate, Benzophenone*3, Phenylbenzimidazole Sulfonic Acid, Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, Octocrylene, Octyl Methoxycinnamate, Isoamyl p-Methoxycinnamate, Octyl Triazone, *-Methylbenzylidene Camphor, Octyl Salicylate, Benzophenone*4.
It can also be used in combination with Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide.
Thanks to its high solubility, Sunsafe-ITZ can be dissolved in most cosmetic oils at very high concentration. To improve dissolution rate, we suggest to heat the oil phase up to ****0°C and add Sunsafe-ITZ slowly under fast agitation.
