In the ever-evolving landscape of cosmetic science, the efficacy and stability of sunscreen formulations are paramount. Consumers today demand products that not only offer robust UV protection but also provide a pleasant sensory experience and long-lasting wear. A key challenge in formulating effective mineral sunscreens, which rely on inorganic UV filters like titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO), is achieving a uniform and stable dispersion of these particles. This is where advanced dispersant technologies play a crucial role. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to offer PEG-26-PPG-30 Phosphate, a cutting-edge dispersant designed to address these formulation challenges and elevate the performance of sunscreen products.

PEG-26-PPG-30 Phosphate is a sophisticated chemical compound that excels at dispersing inorganic particles within water-based systems. Its unique molecular structure, featuring both hydrophilic (polyoxyethylene) and hydrophobic (polyoxypropylene) segments, coupled with a phosphate group, allows it to strongly interact with the surface of metal oxide particles. This interaction creates a protective layer, preventing particles from aggregating or clumping together. The result is a significantly more stable and uniform dispersion, which is critical for both the visual appeal and the functional performance of sunscreens. By preventing agglomeration, this dispersant helps maintain the integrity of the UV protection barrier, ensuring consistent efficacy across the applied area.

One of the primary benefits of incorporating PEG-26-PPG-30 Phosphate into sunscreen formulations is its ability to dramatically reduce the viscosity of the dispersion. High viscosity can make it difficult to process and apply the product evenly. By lowering viscosity, formulators can achieve higher concentrations of inorganic UV filters without compromising the spreadability or texture of the final product. This allows for the creation of more potent sunscreens that offer greater UV protection. Furthermore, the improved dispersion state leads to enhanced transparency and a less chalky appearance on the skin, addressing a common concern with mineral-based sunscreens. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers this specialized ingredient, enabling manufacturers to create superior products that meet consumer expectations for both performance and aesthetics.

The impact of using PEG-26-PPG-30 Phosphate extends beyond simple dispersion. Studies and formulation experience indicate that by improving the dispersion of TiO2 and ZnO, this dispersant can significantly increase the UV absorption efficiency of the inorganic particles. This means that a lower concentration of the UV filters may be needed to achieve the desired Sun Protection Factor (SPF), offering potential cost savings for manufacturers. The ability to achieve higher SPF values with better stability and a more elegant feel is a significant advantage in the competitive sun care market. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is dedicated to supplying high-quality raw materials that empower cosmetic formulators to innovate and deliver exceptional products. Choosing the right dispersant is key to unlocking the full potential of inorganic UV filters, and PEG-26-PPG-30 Phosphate stands out as an excellent choice for achieving optimal results in sunscreen formulations.
