Particulate mineral filter dispersion: LorealRecent Research Landscape

Phase separation in high-SPF formulations leads to inconsistent UV protection and poor shelf life. These innovations control the interfacial tension and lipid network to ensure uniform active ingredient distribution.

What technical problems is Loreal addressing in Particulate mineral filter dispersion?

Insufficient ultraviolet protection factor

(36)evidences

Insoluble screening agents and particulate filters frequently undergo phase separation or precipitation in complex formulations. Stabilizing these components prevents formulation collapse and ensures uniform photoprotection.

Uv filter induced acnegenicity

(19)evidences

Poor distribution of particulate filters leads to uneven skin coverage and reduced photoprotection. Achieving a stable, non-agglomerated suspension ensures consistent SPF performance and improved sensory properties.

Visible mineral residue accumulation

(15)evidences

Skin cell degradation and premature aging caused by solar radiation exposure. Preventing this biological damage is the primary driver for developing stable topical barriers.

Inadequate ultraviolet radiation shielding

(9)evidences

Mineral UV filters tend to cluster, reducing surface area and creating uneven coverage on keratin surfaces. Preventing this ensures uniform photoprotection and eliminates white casting.
