Hi, how are you?
We are pleased to share that our technology of encapsulating BEMT into silica bead has been officially published in the SCI-ranked journal “Microporous and Mesoporous Materials”.
“Microporous and Mesoporous Materials” is an international journal focusing on solid materials and nanostructures, well known for its highly selective publication process. Published by Elsevier, it is one of the leading journals in the field of porous materials, with an Impact Factor of 4.7, reflecting its strong influence in the discipline.
This recent publication signifies international recognition of our expertise in encapsulating chemical UV filters, such as BEMT, within silica. SUNSIL-S is a UV filter encapsulation ingredient developed using this very technology, representing an innovative solution that encapsulates 30% BEMT into silica, achieving both enhanced stability and an improved sensory experience.
1. Water-Dispersible
SUNSIL-S enables BEMT, which previously dispersed only in oils, to be stably encapsulated in silica and dispersed in water as well. This greatly expands formulation flexibility.
2. Enhanced UV Protection
Formulations using SUNSIL-S demonstrate higher UV protection compared to those using pure BEMT. This improvement has been confirmed through both in-vivo and in-vitro testing.
3. Superior Sensory Experience
By encapsulating BEMT in silica, direct contact with the skin is minimized, significantly reducing stickiness and greasiness. This improves the typically heavy feel of conventional chemical UV filters, delivering a light and smooth finish.
4. Enhanced Formulation Stability
The silica particles in SUNSIL-S position themselves at the interface of emulsion droplets, stabilizing the formulation through the Pickering effect. This prevents droplet aggregation or separation, ensuring long-term stability and consistent product quality.
The recent publication in the SCI journal signifies global recognition of the technological excellence of SUNSIL-S(BEMT). We invite you to leverage this proven technology in your formulations to create greater value.
