Octinoxate, identified by Cas 5466-77-3, is typically the primary component in sun protections, guarding against UV-B light.
Octisalate (Cas 118-60-5) can serve as a reference benchmark in pharmaceutical studies for analyzing its presence in drug and sunscreen compositions using chromatography.
Butyl Methoxydibenzolymethane (Cas 70356-09-1) is the global gold standard of UVA protection and is the most used UVA sunscreen in the world
Oxybenzone (Cas 131-57-7), an ultraviolet light absorbing and stabilizing agent, is utilized in the creation of plastics. It is also commonly combined with varying benzophenones in products such as sunscreens, cosmetics, and hair sprays.
Benzophenone 4 (Cas 4065-45-6), included in certain sunscreens, safeguards the skin from harm via UVA and UVB ultraviolet rays
The sunscreen component often found is phenylbenzimidazole sulfonic acid (Cas 27503-81-7). In 1999, U.S. Food and Drug Administration mandated that sunscreen labels in the U.S. must use the name ensulizole.
Homosalate (Cas 118-56-9) is a synthetic component incorporated in several sunblocks. It's produced via the Fischer-Speier esterification process using salicylic acid and a hydrogenated isophorone derivative known as 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexanol. Being present in approximately 45% of American sunblocks, the compound serves as an effective UV-ray chemical shield.
Octocrylene (CAS Number 6197-30-4) plays a significant role as a component in sun protections and beauty products. This chemical compound is an ester, product of the compound of 2-ethylhexyl cyanoacetate and benzophenone. It presents as a transparent and colorless, oily fluid with high viscosity.

Ethylhexyl Triazone (Cas 88122-99-0) is a modern, chemical sunscreen (not accessible in the US due to prohibitive FDA guidelines) providing the most photo-stable shielding from all UVB filters presently available. It secures in the UVB spectrum (280-320nm) with a maximum protection at 314nm. This colorless, odorless, oil-soluble powder performs well in unscented mixtures. It can be employed globally up to 5%, excluding the US and Canada.
Pongamia Pinnata, a medium-sized, evergreen tree widely located across Southeast Asia, is the source of Karanja Oil. This tree’s components have multiple traditional health application methods, with its oil having insect repellent and antiseptic features. It has been historically utilized for the management of skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema.
