Formed through the sophisticated condensation of diphenylcyanoacrylate with 2-ethylhexanol, this ester emerges as a viscous, oily liquid, boasting a clear and colorless appearance. At the heart of its efficacy is the extended conjugation of the acrylate portion, designed to absorb both UVB and short-wave UVA rays, spanning wavelengths from 280 to 320 nm. This potent absorption capability shields your skin from direct DNA damage, offering unparalleled protection under the sun. Its high absorption rate and non-toxic nature make it an optimal choice for formulators seeking to achieve excellence in sun care and cosmetic solutions. Moreover, its remarkable optical and thermal stability underscores its efficacy as a water-soluble broad-spectrum UV absorber.
