CAS No: 68411-27-8
EINECS No: 270-112-4
INCI name: C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate (and) Dipropylene Glycol Dibenzoate (and) PPG-15 Stearyl Ether Benzoate
DESCRIPTION:
Finsolv TPP is a proprietary blend of three unique benzoate esters, which exhibit performance synergy in numerous personal care product areas: exceptional solvent for sunscreen actives, exhibits exceptional tactile and performance improvements over the individual materials, and is soluble in a wider range of materials than its individual components.
Finsolv TPP is C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate (and) Dipropylene Glycol Dibenzoate (and) PPG-15 Stearyl Ether Benzoate.
Finsolv TPP acts as an emollient, solvent and conditioning agent.
Finsolv TPP is is a proprietary blend of three unique benzoate esters.
Possesses moisturizing and white residue reducing properties.
Imparts light, dry and non-oily feel, enhanced tactile properties, soft, smooth and non-greasy rub.
Finsolv TPP is used in skin care, sun care and antiperspirant/deodorants.
Finsolv TPP is a propriety blend of three unique benzoate esters which perform synergistically in personal care applications.
Finsolv TPP is a superior solubiliser for sunscreen actives.
This allows for improved product performance and stability with reduced chance of recrystalisation.
Finsolv TPP exhibits exceptional tactile and performance improvements over the individual materials that comprise it.
The C12-15 alkyl benzoate moiety exhibits a soft, smooth, non-greasy rub in while the dipropylene glycol dibenzoate adds an occlusive property and the PPG-15 stearyl ether benzoate helps in coupling the three esters.
This unique blend of emolliency and occlusiveness combine to produce a moisturiser with superior tactile and performance properties.
In a side-by-side corneometer study, Finsolv TPP provides similar moisturisation benefits over 6 hours as petrolatum but while imparting a dry, non-greasy and cosmetically elegant emollient feel.
Applications:
The multifunctional properties of Finsolv TPP allow it to be used for many applications in personal care areas:
Skin care:
As a moisturiser, emollient and skin conditioning agent, which imparts a light, dry and non-oily, feel to the skin.
Especially useful in make-ups and day creams and lotions containing SPF.
Sun Care:
For improved solubilisation of active UV filters and enhanced tactile properties.
Can be used in sprays and gels as well as lotions.
Antiperspirants/Deodorants:
Reduces the white residue left on the skin from antiperspirant salts.
In addition, the high refractive index makes it suitable for use in clear products.
Features:
Unique proprietary blend of esters optimized for high sunscreen solvency and elegant skin feel.

Sunscreen Solubility:
Finsolv TPP has an outstanding ability to prevent the re-crystallisation of sunscreens in a formulation. This allows for maximum UV protection as well as even spreading on the skin.
Sunscreen crystal growth Finsolv TPP prevents sunscreen (oxybenzone & avobenzone) crystals from forming.
EU GUIDELINES:
In accordance with EU regulatory guidelines, the maximum threshold of sunscreens to solubilizer in freeze/thaw is as follows:
Solubility of Finsolv TPP in these solubilizers:
Solubility of Bis-thylhexyl oxphenol methodxyphenyl triazine only (Tinosorb S):50%
Solubility of Ethylhexyl triazone only (Uvinul T150):~30%
Solubility of Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate (Uvinul A Plus):64%
Solubility of Diethylhexyl Butamido Triazone (Uvasorb HEB): >46%
In practice, suncreens are often used in combination with each other in order to provide optimal broad spectrum UV protection.
Finsolv TPP shows exceptional solubilisation ability when a combination of oxybenzone/avobenzone is used thus showing a synergistic effect in improved solubility related to the combination of the 2 UV filters.
