Essesol UV Filter 50 g
Essesol is a water-based mineral UV filter for sunscreen products. It does not contain nanoparticles. The product forms a physical protective layer on the skin to reduce damage caused by UV radiation in the skin. This product is approved for use in natural or organic skin care products. It can also be used in low-viscosity cosmetic products such as lotions and sprays.
EsseSol contains hydrophobically coated titanium dioxide with an average particle size of 179 nm. Since it is a physical sunscreen filter containing white titanium dioxide, the white color remains visible on the skin. If desired, yellow and/or brown pigments can be added to the product, which reduces the intensity of the white color.
Usage
The product is suitable for use in creams and lotions containing water. Essesol is mixed into the water phase before emulsification. The SPF of a sunscreen product depends on the ingredients, on average each 1% of solids gives approximately 2-3 SPF units. Essesol contains 50% solids, i.e. for every gram of product added, the SPF increases by about one unit. In order to know the exact sun protection factor, however, it is necessary to test the specific finished product.
The recommended dosage is 2-30%.
The SPF value has been tested with oil-in-water creams that did not contain other UV blockers. When measuring the protection factor of a cream containing 22% EsseSol (11% solids), the result was 29 SPF in vitro / 30 SPF in vivo. A cream containing 20% EsseSol (10% solids) had an SPF value was 24.
