Sun Protection Factor Determination Studies of Some Sunscreen Formulations Used in Cosmetics for Their Selection

Abstract: The study involves determination of sun protection factor (SPF) values of some sunscreen formulations for their use in cosmetics.  The Sun Protection Factor (SPF) is a very popular instrument in the marketing of sunscreens. Sun protection factor is a laboratory measure of the effectiveness of sunscreen, the higher the SPF, the more protection a sunscreen offers against the ultraviolet radiations causing sunburn. It is often not understood how sunscreens work and where the limitations of the SPF are. A lot of a… Show more

“…This Previous studies on cinnamic acid have shown that this compound can be used as a photoprotective agent [10], and PMCA has the potential as an antibacterial against E. coli [3]. In addition, cinnamic acid derivatives also showed activity as a sunscreen [11][12][13]. So, it can be expected that PMCA also has better activity than these compounds.…”

“…Where the prepared composite films were scanned between 290 and 320 nm by using a UV spectrophotometer and the obtained absorbance values were multiplied with the respective EE (λ) and I (λ) values (constant value as shown in Table 1). 26 Then, their summation was taken and multiplied with the correction factor (10).…”
