indeksil

Indeksil is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C13H10O3. It is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in organic solvents but insoluble in water. Indeksil is primarily used as a UV filter in sunscreen formulations. Its molecular structure includes a benzophenone moiety, which is responsible for its ability to absorb UV-B radiation and protect the skin from sun damage. Indeksil is classified as a UV-B absorber and is effective in the wavelength range of 290-320 nm. It is generally considered safe for use in sunscreens when used at appropriate concentrations, as it has been shown to have low skin irritation potential and is non-sensitizing. Indeksil is also used in some cosmetics and personal care products for its UV-absorbing properties. However, like all UV filters, it should be used in combination with other sunscreen ingredients to provide broad-spectrum protection. Indeksil is not approved for use in food or pharmaceuticals.
