Determination of New Biomaterials of Clams as An Active Ingredient in Sunscreen
2021
Overview
Sunscreen agents are widely used to protect the skin against sunburn and to prevent the degradation of cosmetics products by sunlight. The good sunscreen agents contain inorganic materials such as synthesized calcium as the active ingredients. Despite using these materials, we discovered the potential of clam shell powder as a new biomaterial product with high calcium, phosphate, chitin and protein that gives a great result in preventing UV light. The clams shell powder was treated in order to synthesis the active ingredients namely Hydroxyapatite (HAp). Hap is added into the formulation of emulsion as sunscreen lotion. The emulsion was analyzed using thermal, spectroscopy and being compared with the commercial products. The uses of this new material is an alternative for the safe, organic, less chemical and a good cosmetic products.
