Abstract

The invention described herein includes a chemical system consisting essentially of octyl methoxycinnamate, oxybenzone, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, and Avobenzone and optionally, water. The chemical system imparts resistance to ultraviolet energy when added to cosmetic formulations, chemical formulations, and medicinal formulations.

Claims (13)

1. A liquid blend consisting of octyl methoxycinnamate in a concentration of 70.00 percent by weight, ethylhexyl salicylate in a concentration of 15.0 percent by weight, avobenzone in a concentration of 15.00 percent by weight wherein the liquid blend is used for slowing ultraviolet degradation of a chemical composition with a susceptibility to ultraviolet deterioration when the blend is added to the chemical composition wherein the ultraviolet inhibitor liquid blend is packaged for supply to manufacturers.

2. A method for slowing the rate of ultraviolet degradation in a chemical composition, comprising:

preparing a chemical liquid blend of ultraviolet inhibitors, the chemical liquid blend consisting essentially of a mixture of octyl methoxycinnamate in a concentration of 70.00 percent by weight, ethylhexyl salicylate in a concentration of 15 percent by weight, avobenzone in a concentration of 15 percent by weight wherein the blend is useful for slowing ultraviolet degradation of a chemical composition and wherein the blend is devoid of any other ultraviolet inhibitors;

packaging the chemical blend for delivery to a manufacturer of the chemical composition; and

adding the chemical blend of ultraviolet inhibitors to a chemical composition.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein the manufacturer adds the chemical system to the chemical composition without an addition of heat.

4. A system of ultraviolet inhibitors useful for slowing the ultraviolet degradation of a chemical composition, the system consisting essentially of a liquid mixture of octyl methoxycinnamate in a concentration of 60.0 percent by weight, ethylhexy salicylate in a concentration of 15.00 percent by weight, and avobenzone in concentrations of 10.0 percent by weight and oxybenzone in a concentration of 15.00 percent by weight, wherein the mixture is devoid of any other ultraviolet inhibitors, and packaging for storing and transporting the mixture of ultraviolet filters, wherein the mixture is useful for slowing the ultraviolet degradation of chemical compositions.

5. A method for making a system for slowing ultraviolet degradation in a chemical composition, comprising:

preparing a mixture of ultraviolet inhibitors in a powder form, water, and ultraviolet inhibitors in a liquid form, wherein the mixture is useful for slowing the ultraviolet degradation of chemical compositions and consists essentially of 60% by weight octyl methoxycinnamate, 15% by weight oxybenzone, 15% by weight ethylhexyl salicylate, and 10% by weight avobenzone and wherein the mixture is devoid of any other ultraviolet inhibitors;

heating the mixture to a temperature of 50 to 55 degrees Centigrade, wherein powder-based components are dissolved in a liquid phase; and

packaging the liquid phase to form a system for slowing ultraviolet degradation in a chemical composition.

6. The method of claim 5 wherein the chemical system is a cosmetic formulation.

7. A system for slowing ultraviolet degradation in a chemical composition, produced by the method of claim 5 .
