TX-85AS is a white fine powder that functions as an UV filter and provides broad spectrum protection from UV rays. As a physical block, TX-85AS helps shield skin from sun damage and premature aging. It has a silica sol coating and Triethoxycaprylylsilane that allows it to float on water and remain stable. TX-85AS meets stringent purity standards with 82-88% titanium dioxide content and low levels of heavy metals. Its hydrophobic properties and ability to float on water make it well-suited for formulations where long-lasting UV protection is required.
