Understanding Benzophenone-4: A Key UV Filter for Cosmetics

In the competitive landscape of cosmetic ingredient sourcing, understanding the core functions and benefits of key components is paramount for R&D professionals and procurement managers. One such vital ingredient is Benzophenone-4, also widely recognized by its INCI name, Sulisobenzone. As a leading manufacturer and supplier of specialty chemicals, Ningbo Inno Pharmchem Co., Ltd. offers high-quality UV Absorber Benzophenone-4 powder, crucial for formulating effective and stable personal care products.

What is Benzophenone-4?

Benzophenone-4 (BP-4) is a water-soluble organic compound that functions as a broad-spectrum UV absorber. Its chemical structure, specifically 5-Benzoyl-4-hydroxy-2-methoxybenzenesulfonic acid, allows it to efficiently absorb both UVB and short-wave UVA radiation. This dual action makes it an indispensable ingredient in sunscreens, lotions, creams, and other cosmetic formulations designed to protect the skin from the damaging effects of sunlight. Beyond its primary role as a sunscreen agent, BP-4 also acts as a photostabilizer, protecting the cosmetic formulation itself from degradation when exposed to UV light, thereby extending product shelf life and maintaining product integrity.

Applications in Cosmetics and Beyond

The primary application for Benzophenone-4 is within the personal care and cosmetics industry. It is commonly found in:

  • Sunscreens: Providing essential protection against sunburn and long-term skin damage.
  • Daily Moisturizers & Lotions: Offering daily defense against incidental sun exposure.
  • Hair Care Products: Protecting hair color and structure from UV-induced fading and damage.
  • Color Cosmetics: Stabilizing pigments and ensuring color fastness.

Furthermore, its water-soluble nature makes it suitable for use in water-based systems such as inks and coatings, where UV protection is also critical for maintaining product performance and appearance.
