What Is Avobenzone?
Avobenzone, also known by the INCI name Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane, is an organic dibenzoylmethane UVA filter identified by CAS 70356-09-1. Its oil-soluble character supports incorporation into the oil phase of selected sun-care emulsions and anhydrous systems.
The supply specification lists GC assay 95–105%, loss on drying ≤0.5% and specific extinction 1100–1180 at 357 nm. The assay interval is an analytical acceptance range and is retained as stated. Individual impurity, total impurity and residual methanol limits support incoming quality comparison.
Avobenzone requires an appropriate photostabilization strategy. Evaluate dissolution, interactions with the complete UV-filter package, colour and stability under the intended processing and light exposure. Finished-product UVA protection and SPF require testing of the complete formulation.
Daily skin-care and decorative cosmetic development should also assess texture, packaging compatibility and destination-market use requirements. ZXCHEM supplies this ingredient in 25 kg drums with technical documentation and free samples for testing. Keep powder sealed, dry and protected from light and excessive heat.
