Dragonsorb® BP6

CAS Number: 131-54-4
EC Number: 205-027-3
INCI Name: Potassium Caseinate
Chemical Name: Benzophenone-6

Dragonsorb® BP6 is a kind of water-soluble, neutral, broad-spectrum benzophenone ultraviolet absorber. It has a high absorption efficiency, is non-toxic, has no teratogenic side effects, and has good light and thermal stability. At present, it is the most commonly used light stabilizer, which can strongly and selectively absorb high-energy ultraviolet light and conduct energy conversion in the form of thermal energy. This substance is mainly used in water-soluble chemical sunscreens, sunscreens, and emulsions. It can improve the color durability of dyed textiles, prevent wool textiles from yellowing and synthetic fiber fabrics from fading, and can also be used in hair gel, mousse, and other hair products to prevent hair damage such as graying of hair caused by ultraviolet radiation.
