4. In situ encapsulation of a UV filter in MCM-41 mesoporous silica
To develop the novel concept of in situ encapsulation of a UV filter in mesoporous silica, and then to test the performance of the resulting material, PBSA phenylbenzimidazole sulphonic acid, a UV filter which international regulations allow to be used up to 3% by mass in formulations, was selected.
PBSA is a hydrophilic molecule widely used as a sun protection agent, acting as an active ingredient. PBSA is soluble in perspiration, bathing water, etc., making it difficult to stabilize on the skin over time. Its permanent encapsulation in a silica carrier should make it non-soluble in aqueous media. In this way, it can be fixed to the skin via the lipophilic phase of the cosmetic formulation.
