- Product Highlights
- Zinc Oxide UV USP series, including two products, the UV USP-1 and UV USP-2.
- It is a physical sun blocking agent that works primarily by reflecting/scattering/absorbing ultraviolet light.
- It has a broad range of effectiveness, covering UVB and UVA rays.
- It is stable in sunlight and can provide greater protection from UVA rays than titanium oxide or any other sunscreen chemical.
- Titanium dioxide and regular zinc oxide also blocks visible light up to wavelengths 600 nm, whereas Zinc Oxide UV USP-1 and Zinc Oxide UV USP-2 block down up to 290 - 400 nm, depending on the specific formulation.
- As a single ingredient, Zinc Oxide UV USP series is the broadest range sunscreen on the market.
- Zinc Oxide UV USP series is very fine white to light yellowish powder that is non-nano particle size (safety from photo- catalyst) and used for UV Region Visible Region whitening, with good skin adhesion and UV protection. It is a perfect addition to mineral makeup.
- Following is the data for our UV USP Wavelength (am.) zinc oxide.
