Ozonation of the oxybenzone, octinoxate, and octocrylene UV-filters: Reaction kinetics, absorbance characteristics, and transformation products.
Hopkins ZR, Snowberger S, Blaney L. Hopkins ZR, et al. J Hazard Mater. 2017 Sep 15;338:23-32. doi: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2017.05.016. Epub 2017 May 10. J Hazard Mater. 2017. PMID: 28535480
Here, we investigated ozonation of the three most commonly employed UVFs: octinoxate (OMC), octocrylene (OC), and oxybenzone (OXY). Specific second-order rate constants for UVF reaction with ozone were identified as follows: OMC, 5.2510(4)M(-1)s(-1); OC, 1.58M(-1)s( …

Update About the Effects of the Sunscreen Ingredients Oxybenzone and Octinoxate on Humans and the Environment.
Siller A, Blaszak SC, Lazar M, Olasz Harken E. Siller A, et al. Plast Surg Nurs. 2018 Oct/Dec;38(4):158-161. doi: 10.1097/PSN.0000000000000244. Plast Surg Nurs. 2018. PMID: 30507815
It has been shown that inorganic filters are more effective at blocking forms of UV light, both UVA and UVB, as compared with organic filters because organic sunscreens absorb and convert radiation whereas inorganic sunscreens reflect radiation. The use of the two most common org …
