Octocrylene is a kind of oil-soluble ultraviolet absorbent, which is insoluble in water. It is helpful for the dissolution of other oil-soluble solid sunscreen. It has the advantages of high absorption rate, non-toxic, no teratogenic effect, good light and thermal stability. It can absorb UV-B and a small amount of UV-A. It is a Class I sunscreen approved by the FDA of the United States and has a high use rate in the United States and Europe.
Octocrylene protects skin from UV damage: Octocrylene preparations can protect skin from sun damage, absorb UV rays, prevent the effect of UV rays on skin, slow down skin aging, and help to assist in the incidence rate of skin cancer;
Octocrylene is stable in nature and can provide effective protection when exposed to the sun. It can stabilize Avobenzone and make it work. Avobenzone is an effective sunscreen for long wavelength UVA.
Octocrylene can make sunscreen products waterproof.
According to the definition of the World Health Organization, this component is not an endocrine disruptor. The role of the World Health Organization is to guide and coordinate international health within the United Nations. Octocrylene alone will not cause photosensitivity, and cases of allergy to this ingredient in sunscreen products are extremely rare.
At present, well-known brands in the world are using this product, such as L’Oreal, Johnson&Johnson and others are importing a large number of Octocrylene from China. The downstream market of cosmetics in China has an increasing demand for this product.
However, the price and market of this product are monopolized by Cosmos and MFCI.
In order to break the market monopoly of this product and its own development needs, Jinan ZhongAn invested 10 million yuan to build the Octocrylene production line in 2020, and the production can begin in January 2023.
We hope that customers in the market can give guidance.
