Sun Protection inspired by life The Care Creations UV-Filter Portfolio
SUN PROTECTION FOR HEALTHY AND BEAUTIFUL LOOKING SKIN Many of our leisure activities take place outdoors, yet sun exposure has a negative impact on our skin. The effects of sunlight accumulate over a lifetime, increasing the risk of developing permanent damage. Protection from UV rays and prevention of UV induced skin damage and aging is more crucial in today s world than ever before! Sunburn is primarily caused by UVB rays (290-320 nm), however UVA rays (UVA II 320-340 nm, UVA I 340-400 nm) can alter the regeneration process of skin tissue and accelerate skin aging. As both UVB and UVA radiation can cause skin cancer, a combination of effi cacious UVB and UVA fi lters that provide superior protection is a must for all sun care products. BASF offers an extended product portfolio for market relevant and sophisticated sun care formulations: UV fi lters to achieve excellent broad-spectrum sun protection Photostable and effi cient UV fi lters Excipient ingredients for consumer accepted sensorics UV Filter Spectra across the full UV Spectrum Specific Extinction E1%/1cm 1600 1400 1200 1000 800 UVB UVA II UVA I Uvinul A Plus Tinosorb M (active) 600 Tinosorb S 400 Tinosorb A2B (active) Uvinul T 150 200 Uvinul MC 80 0 290 300 310 320 330 340 350 360 370 380 390 400 Wavelength (nm) Uvinul N 539T

REGULATORY STATUS The use of UV filters to protect the skin is subject to legislation in many countries. The time needed for approval depends upon the individual requirements of each country and region. The table below summarizes the approval status of BASF UV filters in different countries and regions. The approval process for UV filters in USA takes longer than in most countries due to the regulation of sunscreens as over-the-counter-drugs (OTC). The current approval process for new filters in the USA still remains under review.
