Benzophenone-3/UV-9 is a high-efficienct UV radiation absorbing agent, capable of effectively absorbing UV radiation of 290-400 nm wavelength ,but it almost does not absorb visible light, particularly applicable to light-colored transparent products. It is well stable to light and heat, not decomposable below 200°C, applicable to paint and various plastic products,particular effective to polyvinyl chloirde, polystyrene, polyurethane, acrylic resin, light-colored transparent furniture, as well as to cosmetics. Benzophenone-3/Oxybenzone is used in plastics as an ultraviolet light absorber and stabilizer. It is used, along with other benzophenones, in sunscreens, hair sprays, and cosmetics because they help prevent potential damage from sunlight exposure. It is also found, in concentrations up to 1%, in nail polishes.Benzophenone-3/Oxybenzone can also be used as a photostabilizer for synthetic resins. Benzophenones can leach from food packaging, and are widely used as photo-initiators used to start a chemical that dries ink faster. As a sunscreen, it provides broad-spectrum ultraviolet coverage, including UVB and short-wave UVA rays. It is one of the most widely used organic UVA filters in sunscreens today. It is also found in nail polish, fragrances, hairspray, and cosmetics as a photostabilizer.  Key Technical Parameters: Appearance Pale yellow crystalline powder Purity ≥99.0% Melting point 60.0℃~66.0℃ Heavy metals 5ppm max Loss on drying(Moisure) ≤0.5% Ash ≤0.1% Obsorption rate(E1m at 285 nm in ethanol) ≥630 Obsorption rate(E1m at 325 nm in ethanol) ≥400 Application: Benzophenone-3/UV-9 is a broad absorption UV absorber that is effective in the 290 – 400 nm range. Benzophenone-3/UV-9 is soluble in common organic solvents and readily compatible with many polymer. Benzophenone-3/UV-9 is widely used in sun preparations.
