Polysilicone-15 is a silicone-based UV-B absorber,a chemical sunscreen agent that protects the skin in the UVB range (290-320 nm) with a peak absorbance at 312 nm. It is a colorless-to-pale yellow viscous liquid, hardly soluble in water, while integrates easily with the oil phase of sunscreen formulation,enabling day care or sunscreen formulations that leave a dry, silky touch on the skin.
Polysilicone-15 is the first polymeric UV-B filter consisting of chromophores attached to a silicone backbone and is a pretty good team player and can stabilize the famously unstable UVA filter, avobenzone , and works especially well with Ensulizole to achieve high SPF protection. It is approved up to 10% as a sunscreen filter in the EU and most parts of the world, except for the United States.
Polysilicone-15 brings silkiness to formulation, adding sensory to performance and its polymeric structure ensures excellent skin compatibility building a uniform film for optimal sun protection.
