CREASPERSE® UV Dispersions (2012-01-30)
Creasperse® UV dispersions are finely dispersed physical UV filters in different photostable vehicles, typically composed of nanofine Titanium Dioxide, Zinc Oxide or Iron Oxide. With their maximum concentrations of solids it is easy to obtain high SPFs. The UV pigments are dispersed in such a way that they distribute evenly and offer maximum capacity of UV screening. Typical usage level is 5 – 15%. The range includes Creasperse® Fe 3 AF 25 which though not classified as an UV filter is combined with other Creasperse® UV filters as an ideal ingredient for self-tanning products with DHA giving a tanning-like tone to the skin. Typical usage level 0.1-1%.
