Usage

General Description

2,2-dimethylpropyl 2,3,5,6-tetramethylbenzoate is a chemical compound used in sunscreens and other cosmetic products as a UV filter. It provides protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays by absorbing and reflecting the sun's radiation. 2,2-dimethylpropyl 2,3,5,6-tetramethylbenzoate is a derivative of benzoic acid and has the ability to form a protective film on the skin, preventing sunburn and skin damage. It is considered safe for use in cosmetic products and has been approved for use in various countries. Additionally, its light and non-greasy texture make it a popular choice for sun protection in skincare products.
