  • Applications

    Cinoxate (CAS 104-28-9) is a UVB-filtering agent used primarily in cosmetic and personal care formulations, especially sunscreen products and SPF-containing skin care items. It is also employed as a UV absorber in coatings and inks to reduce photodegradation, and as a stabilizer in polymer formulations to improve the light stability of plastics and coatings. It may be considered for inclusion in household and consumer products that require UV protection, subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
