Also known as
Uvinul T 150 Octyl Triazone 2,4,6-Trianilino-(p-carbo-2'-ethylhexyl-1'-oxy)-1,3,5-triazine EHT Univul T150
Compatibility
Works well with:
Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane Octocrylene Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate Homosalate
Ethylhexyl Triazone is oil-soluble and blends well with most other oil-phase UV filters, and can contribute to broad-spectrum coverage when combined with UVA filters such as Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane or Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate. It is not approved for use in the United States (FDA) but is permitted in the EU (up to 5%), Australia, and many other markets. No significant documented incompatibilities with common cosmetic ingredients are established, though solubilization in the oil phase must be confirmed as it has relatively low solubility in many cosmetic esters.
Formulation notes
Ethylhexyl Triazone is a highly efficient UVB filter with a peak absorbance around 314 nm, offering strong protection in the UVB range. Formulators use it to achieve high SPF values at relatively low concentrations, often in combination with UVA filters for broad-spectrum sunscreens. It is considered photostable and can help stabilize less photostable filters such as Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane when used in combination.
