Aspects of Nanotechnology In Inorganic Sunscreen Dispersions: Efficacy and Aesthetics

  • Published : 2003.09.01

Abstract

Chemists must take into consideration more factors to formulate with inorganic sunscreens than many other active ingredients including organic sunscreens. Because the UV radiation attenuation grade particles of Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide are in the nanometer range, the state of their dispersion in the product film on the skin governs their efficacy and aesthetics.(omitted)
