Ethylhexyl Triazone(UVB Filter)-CAS 88122-99-6
Cosmetic-grade Ethylhexyl Triazone (EHT) is a high-efficiency ultra-stable organic UVB sunscreen agent, known as the "SPF booster" in the professional sunscreen industry. With a unique large rigid heterocyclic molecular structure, it possesses the highest molar extinction coefficient among mainstream cosmetic UVB filters, delivering ultra-strong and concentrated absorption for the key UVB burning band of 280-320nm.
EHT can rapidly and efficiently improve the SPF value of formulas with extremely low addition dosage, perfectly solving the industry pain point of high total sunscreen dosage and heavy formula texture for high-power sunscreens. Different from conventional UVB absorbers that are prone to light degradation, EHT has ultra-high intrinsic photostability.
Its stable molecular structure does not decompose or fail under long-term intense ultraviolet irradiation, requiring no additional photostabilizers, and maintains persistent and stable UVB shielding capacity throughout the product service cycle.
The raw material features mild performance, low sensitization, excellent thermal stability, and wide compatibility with various oil-phase systems and UVA sunscreen agents. It is the core essential raw material for developing high SPF, light texture, high-stability professional broad-spectrum sunscreen products, and is widely recognized and adopted in global high-end sunscreen formulas.



Key Benefits
• Top-Class UVB Absorption Efficiency: Ultra-high molar extinction coefficient, far exceeding ordinary UVB filters, strong targeted absorption for sunburn bands, rapidly boosts SPF50+ ultra-high protection with low dosage.
• Zero Photolysis Ultra-High Photostability: Rigid macromolecular structure with super anti-light-degradation capability, no efficacy attenuation under long-term sun exposure, no stabilizer required, lasting stable protection.
• Low Dosage & Light Formula Texture: High efficiency with low addition, effectively reduce total sunscreen dosage in formulas, avoid heavy and greasy texture, realize high SPF with light skin feel.
• Excellent Formula Synergy: Perfectly compatible with all mainstream UVA filters such as DHHB, TDSA and Avobenzone, builds ultra-stable UVA/UVB full-spectrum protection system and improves overall sunscreen performance.
• High Safety & Low Sensitization: Highly purified raw material, non-irritating to skin, no phototoxicity, low sensitization risk, compliant with global cosmetic sunscreen regulations, suitable for long-term daily use.
• Superior Thermal & Storage Stability: Resistant to high-temperature oxidation and discoloration, stable performance during production and long-term storage, suitable for large-scale standardized mass production.
