Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine
Is an oil soluble chemical agent absorbing ultraviolet rays in both the UVA and UVB range. It has the important advantage of being photostable, i.e. it does not degrade and lose effectiveness on exposure to sunlight. Furthermore, its presence can protect less photostable UV blockers from degradation. It’s broad spectrum (covers the whole UVB and UVA range, 280-400 nm) with peak protections at about 310 and 345 nm and unlike older sunscreen agents, it’s very photostable. It hardly deteriorates in the presence of UV light and it’s also useful in stabilizing other less stable sunscreen agents.
