Symrise launches Neo Heliopan^® 310, a powerful UVB filter with an excellent solubilization profile. The substance is highly compatible with other cosmetic ingredients. It thus helps customers achieve high sun protection factors (SPFs) in a range of applications. This includes sunscreen, anti-aging, and anti-wrinkle products, serums, and lotions. Also, the UVB filter is approved for use at up to 10% in sun care and skin care products in the EU, Mercosur, ASEAN, and China.

The organic crystalline UVB filter Neo Heliopan^® 310 (INCI: Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone) comes with superior absorption capacity. It reaches an absorption peak of 310 nm due to its three chromophore groups. As one of the most photostable UVB filters on the market it also offers a very good safety profile and provides photoaging prevention properties. Its reliable performance and its excellent solubility make it ideal for water-resistant sunscreens and water-free formulations as well as typical emulsions.

Symrise’s leading range of UV filters entails a complete portfolio of organic, inorganic, and mineral solutions. The launch of Neo Heliopan^® 310 further expands this offering. It provides customers with a convenient, effective, and efficient solution for sun protection management, aligned with consumer expectations.
