Throughout the year, but especially in the warmer months, it is important to protect our skin from harmful UV rays with the right sun care products. Our emulsifiers and emollients help you to create sunscreens that are efficient and feel good on the skin.
The pleasant skin sensation as well as the stability of cosmetic emulsions strongly depend on the formulation’s emulsifier system. For sun care applications, we recommend our PROTELAN range for an outstanding stability of O/W sunscreen formulations as well as our SEBUMOL range for extra hydration and a boosting effect on W/O emulsions.
Zschimmer & Schwarz offers an extensive portfolio of emollients. When they are combined, a wide variety of sensory effects, textures and other properties can be achieved: from light to heavy consistencies, and from short to medium playtime.
Zschimmer & Schwarz offers a wide range of emollients for sun care, including sunscreen solubilisers. Since ZETEMOL OSB and ZETEMOL AB are compatible with sunscreen, they can enhance the SPF and thus maximise skin protection. Thanks to these emollients, it is possible to increase the performance of a sunscreen without adding more filters and to leave a nice after-feel on the skin.
Speaking about sun protection, two key points are important: the SPF of the product as well as its water resistance. The acrylic polymers of our SYNTRAN® line are able to enhance the water resistance of your sunscreen formulations. And our wax-grafted polymer technology boosts the performance of UVA/UVB sunscreen products.
