Product Category: Sun Care AgentOmcCap™: Acts as a sunscreen agent (organic UV filters). Its microcapsules octyl methoxycinnamate 60% payload are non-breakable, non-release transparent micron size enables optimal isolation of octyl methoxycinnamate and prevents octyl methoxycinnamate leakage into the surrounding. It enhances photostability, increases SPF values, reduces systemic absorption, and allows unlimited UV filter combinations. It prevents crystallization. It is compatible with all types of formulations and should be added at the last step of the formulation preparation, using either low or high shear mixing. Used in sunscreen products.
Tagra’s unique patented microencapsulation technology enables the manufacturing of “green” unbreakable, transparent micron size microcapsules of organic and inorganic UV filters such as OmcCap™. This delivery system will:
- Prevent the UV filter leakage into the surrounding
- Retain the sunscreen on the superficial layers of the skin
- Improve safety profile – no risk of skin penetration and no skin irritation and/or photoallergy
- Enhance UV filters chemical stability and photostability
- Overcome incompatibilities between or among UV filters allowing new sunscreen combinations
- Prevent the crystallization of Avobenzone
- Enable UV filters dispersibility in water phase
- Prevent the appearance of white residues caused by TiO2 and ZnO
- Avoid the need for UV filters solubilizers, therefore enabling light, aesthetic, gentle, smooth, and non-greasy feel formulations
- SunCaps™ exhibit improved sensorial profile with better tactile properties
