Homosalate Usage
Homosalateis anorganic compoundused in somesunscreens.
It is anesterformed fromsalicylic acidand 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexanol, a derivative ofcyclohexanol.
Contained in 45% of U.S. sunscreens, it is used as a chemical UV filter.
The salicylic acid portion of the molecule absorbsultravioletrays with a wavelength from 295 nm to 315 nm, protecting the skin from sun damage.
Thehydrophobiccyclohexanol portion provides greasiness that prevents it from dissolving in water.
