A strong UV-B absorber and an excellent solubilizer for solid, crystalline UV absorbers

This oil soluble, clear yellow viscous liquid is the most effective photostabilizer for PARSOL® 1789. PARSOL® 340 is an excellent solubilizer for solid, crystalline UV absorbers like PARSOL® 1789, Ethylhexyl Triazone, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate and Benzophenone-3. By combining this UV filter with other UV filters you can achieve high SPF. PARSOL® 340 is approved worldwide.
