Avobenzone Market

Avobenzone Market: Overview and Dynamics

Sun emits energy to Earth in two ways: one is the visible light that we can see, the other is infrared radiation because of which we feel the heat and last are the UV radiations. These UV radiations cannot be seen or felt by us, yet they are harmful to live beings. Most of the radiations do not reach the surface of Earth due to the presence of ozone that protects from the UV rays.

Sunscreens protect the skin from the harmful effects of the sun. Prolonged exposure under the UV rays might cause skin cancer, sunburns, skin reactions and premature ageing. Sunscreens comprise of active ingredients that either absorb sun’s UV radiation or by reflecting the radiation. Chemicals like Avobenzone, aminobenzoic acid, oxybenzone and others are the active chemicals used in the sunscreens.

Avobenzone is a chemical sunscreen agent that prevents direct radiation from sunscreen and protects the skin from UVA and UVB rays. Avobenzone is also oil-soluble which allows its usage in the sunscreen, as it can easily combine with other active ingredients. Ultraviolet rays are responsible for the premature ageing, skin cancer and signs of solar elastosis. Avobenzone has an absorption spectrum of a maximum of 357 nm and absorbs into the skin as soon as it is applied in order to block the UV rays.

Avobenzone is the FDA approved chemical like other chemicals and able to absorb ultraviolet rays over a wider range of wavelengths than many other sunscreen agents. Avobenzone is converted as the formula for the dominant sunscreen agent manufacturing Industries. Due to less number of applications, it is only using in beauty and personal care industry. Avobenzone’s limited uses as a chemical allow it convention in only beauty and personal care, making it vulnerable to more research and development owing to its unknown benefits.

Despite its usage in sunscreens, Avobenzone breaks down in sunlight in 30 minutes because of which the manufacturers have to add stabilizing chemicals like octocrylene, homosalate or octisalate. There has been a history of allergic occurrences caused by the chemical’s stabilizer octocrylene. The limitations of avobenzone do not restrict to only skin allergies but also the cases of hormone disruption were noticed after the breakdown of the chemical. The free radicals released in the skin accelerate the ageing process and also increase the risk of cancer.

Avobenzone, as the chemical used for blocking the UVA rays in combination with its stabilizers, has a popular alternative in the market. Zinc oxide, an important mineral used in physical or mineral sunscreens is proved to cause no side effect and is also coral safe. With the increasing concern for marine life among the population, the emerging mineral sunscreens are garnering huge favour and acceptance from the users. Dermatologists are convincing patients to adopt mineral sunblocks that reflect UV rays instead of avobenzone sunscreens that may cause serious health issues.

COVID-19 Impact Insights

Covid-19 pandemic has negatively affected every aspect of life and Industries globally. The global avobenzone market is also affected due to several restraining factors such as unavailability of man force, non-operational manufacturing units in lockdown, scarcity of materials, financial constraints and others. Due to lower demand in the cosmetic sector in lockdown, several sunscreen ingredient markets are shuttered in certain regions. There was sluggish demand for the sun protection products in North America and some countries of Europe.

However, in countries like Indonesia, China, Japan and some Asian countries the demand for avobenzone remained intact. This was encountered due to the elevating awareness of the use of sunscreens indoors and especially in front of desktops or laptops while working from home. Furthermore, it was also observed that shifting of consumer’s preference towards natural ingredients may also affect the CAGR of avobenzone market on a large scale.

Manufacturers are now strategizing in a way of adjusting purity levels with external solvents in order to save costs, although not compromising the health of customers. Considering the covid-19 market, Fact.MR gives the detailed global market analysis of avobenzone market.
