Ingredients Details Documents Zinc Oxide Non-Coated, High Purity Micronized Zinc Oxide for UV Protection INCI Name: Zinc Oxide Appearance: Fine white powder Particle Size: ~100 nm/ 0.1 microns Solubility: Dispersible in oil Usage Rate: 1% – 25% Function: Physical UV filter, skin protectant, soothing agent This uncoated zinc oxide offers broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection, making it ideal for natural and mineral sunscreens. It also provides anti-irritant and skin soothing properties in baby care, acne products, and soothing lotions. Why Use Zinc Oxide – 100 nm? Zinc Oxide is one of the safest and most effective broad-spectrum UV filters available. At ~100 nm particle size, this form offers excellent transparency on the skin while maintaining strong sun protection. It is ideal for formulating mineral-based sunscreens, BB creams, tinted moisturizers, and baby-safe skincare. This grade is non-nano by many definitions (depending on labeling jurisdiction), yet small enough to minimize whitening on application.
