Sun protection
Application
Benzophenone-3 is a key ingredient in
sunscreens and cosmetics. Its primary role is to protect the skin from the
harmful effects of UV radiation. Benzophenone-3 absorbs UVB and some UVA rays,
shielding the skin from sunburn and UV-induced damage. It is a popular choice
in sunscreens due to its broad-spectrum UV protection capabilities.
Additionally, Benzophenone-3 is used in various cosmetics like lip balms and
moisturizers to provide UV protection and prevent sun damage, making it an
essential component in the fight against skin aging and skin cancer caused by
excessive sun exposure.
