3-benzylidene camphor
Description
3-Benzylidene camphor (CAS 15087-24-8 ) is an organic UV filter used in sunscreen and cosmetic formulations to absorb ultraviolet radiation in the UVB range. It belongs to the camphor-derived UV absorber class. The material is evaluated for inclusion in regulated cosmetic ingredient lists across multiple markets. In sunscreen development, it functions as a UVB-absorbing active that can be combined with other UV filters. This combination helps achieve broad-spectrum protection profiles required by modern sun care standards. Formulators incorporate it into leave-on products such as sun lotions, day creams, and facial SPF products. Photostability and filter compatibility are key selection criteria for these applications. It also appears in color cosmetics and foundations where incidental UV protection is built into the formulation matrix. 3-Benzylidene camphor is supplied as a solid powder or crystalline material suitable for incorporation into oil-phase cosmetic systems. It is available in cosmetic-grade specification for global use. The product is aligned with purity requirements referenced in international ingredient assessments. Sourcing is typically in research and development quantities through to commercial batch sizes. Availability depends on regional regulatory status and specific formulation needs. This chemical remains a specialized component within the broader portfolio of ultraviolet radiation absorbers for personal care. Contact us for supply of 3-benzylidene camphor Request Quote
