Crodasorb™ UV-283-LQ-(MH) (Cinnamidopropyltrimonium Chloride and Water) is a patented, high-activity quaternized UV absorber specifically designed to protect hair from the damaging effects of UVB rays, though it is noted that it does not fall into the category of sunscreen. This innovative ingredient not only shields the hair from UV damage but also enhances combing properties, strength, and overall mechanical behavior for hair exposed to sunlight. With its multifaceted benefits, including hydration, nourishment, and anti-redness effects, Crodasorb™ serves as an efficient solution for formulators seeking to provide exceptional sun protection while preserving hair’s natural color and improving its hydrophobic qualities. Moreover, it is compatible with anionic systems, making it suitable for low VOC formulations and cold processing, and it is a remarkable addition to rinse-off hair conditioners, shampoos, and styling products, ensuring that hair remains strong, manageable, and beautifully conditioned.
