Benzophenone-3, also known as oxybenzone, is used in a variety of applications due to its ability to absorb ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Here are some key applications:
1. **Sunscreens**: The primary use of Benzophenone-3 is in sunscreens. It acts as a UV filter, absorbing both UVA and UVB rays, thus protecting the skin from sunburn and reducing the risk of skin cancer and premature skin aging caused by sun exposure.
2. **Cosmetics and Personal Care Products**: In addition to sunscreens, Benzophenone-3 is used in other cosmetic products such as lotions, lip balms, and makeup. It helps protect the skin and the product itself from the harmful effects of UV radiation.
3. **Plastic and Polymer Products**: Benzophenone-3 is also used as a UV stabilizer in plastics, coatings, and polymers. It helps prevent the degradation and discoloration of these materials when exposed to sunlight.
4. **Textiles**: In some cases, Benzophenone-3 is applied to textiles to provide UV protection and prevent the degradation of fibers due to UV exposure.
5. **Photographic Materials**: It is used in photographic materials to prevent the degradation of photosensitive compounds.
Despite its effectiveness in protecting against UV radiation, there are concerns about the safety of Benzophenone-3. It has been associated with potential health risks, including hormonal disruption and allergic reactions, and environmental concerns, particularly its impact on coral reefs. Some regions have restricted or banned the use of products containing Benzophenone-3 to mitigate these issues.
