For mass market formulas, DZ 480 CCT is the most cost-effective solution for boosting SPF and critical wavelength, especially in combination with organic UV filters. The DZ 480 CCT is designed for mass market formulations, where the goal is hitting SPF and broad spectrum benchmarks at efficient price points without sacrificing much on sensory and transparency.
Easy Manufacturing
- Stable product, no separation and no sedimentation.
- Easy to transfer and to mix with the common cosmetic equipments.
Easy Formulation/product development
- COSMOS, ECOCERT and Natural Product Association (NPA) approved for natural sunscreens which meet with global regulations.
- Meet with global UVA criteria: FDA of USA: critical wavelength > 370 nm; PA +++ of Asia; UVAPF/SPF > 1/3 of EU
- Speed to market: Provides the guide equations to calculate/predict the appropriate % dosage for the target SPF and critical wavelength for quick formulation development.
- Extremely high % active for flexible formulation development with good sensory.

- Usage Guidelines
Just add into the oil phase of the formulation and mix.
Dosage: About 1.5 SPF per 1% ZnO active. Critical Wavelength is 378 - 380 nm. For example, a SPF 30 sunscreen formulation would need: 30/1.5 = 20 % ZnO active, or about 25.0% G-Block DZ 480 CCT (25% x 80% = 20% ZnO active).
For predicting the SPF and critical wavelength of sunscreen prototypes made of the blends of several GBlock products, please contact us for the "G-Block Prediction Calculator" program to do it easily.
Sunscreen Test Protocols:
SPF: In-Vivo Protocols of FDA of USA and EN ISO 24444:2010.
UVA: In-Vivo protocol of EN ISO 24442:2011; In-Vitro Protocol of FDA of USA( critical wave) ; EN ISO 2443:2012 (UVAPF) .
Please note that in-vitro SPF measurement is not suitable for sunscreens of inorganic UV filters
