General Description

NANOESTER OS, known chemically as Octyl Salicylate, is an oil-soluble ester derived from salicylic acid and 2-ethylhexanol. It is commonly used in sunscreens and other personal care products for its ability to absorb UVB rays and enhance the stability of other UV filters. With its lightweight, emollient texture and good skin compatibility, NANOESTER OS helps improve the sensory feel of formulations without leaving a greasy residue. It is especially favored in modern sun care products for its dual role as a UV filter and a solubilizer for crystalline sunscreen actives.

Uses in the Cosmetics Industry

NANOESTER OS plays a key role in the formulation of:

  • Acts as a UVB absorber and helps improve the performance of active UV filters like Avobenzone and Oxybenzone.
  • Enhances photostability and provides a smooth, silky skin finish.
  • Improves blendability and feel in foundations and BB creams with sun protection.
  • Provides light UV protection while maintaining product glide and texture.
  • Offers mild soothing properties and helps reduce UV-induced damage.
    Manufacturers buy NANOESTER OS in bulk for its effectiveness in SPF enhancement and emollient properties across a wide range of cosmetic formats.

Hazards

NANOESTER OS is generally recognized as safe for cosmetic use, but certain considerations apply:

  • Rarely, individuals with sensitive skin may experience mild irritation or allergic reactions.
  • While photostable itself, it should be combined with other filters to broaden UV protection.
  • Should not be aerosolized in spray products without appropriate particle size control, to avoid respiratory exposure.
  • Like many UV filters, may contribute to aquatic toxicity in high concentrations; environmental safety assessments are recommended.

Storage & Stability

  • Store in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Highly stable under UV exposure and compatible with most organic UV filters and emollients.
    NANOESTER OS is available in bulk and wholesale quantities for formulation of next-generation sun care and skin protection products with enhanced sensory profiles and photostability.
