| 2-Ethylhexyl salicylate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | liquid |
| Occurrence | Has apparently not been reported to occur in nature. |
| Uses | Solvent for solid sunscreens. |
| Uses | 2-ethylhexyl salicylate is also known as ethylhexyl salicylate and octyl salicylate. It is a uVB absorber. |
| Uses | ethylhexyl salicylate is an FDA-approved uVB sunscreen chemical, it absorbs within the entire uVB range. It has an approved usage level of 3 to 5 percent in both the united States and the european union, and is a good solubilizer for benzophenone-3. In suntan lotions, it is used as a preservative and anti-microbial. This is a salt of salicylic acid occurring in wintergreen leaves and in other plants. It is also synthetically manufactured. It is considered a non-comedogenic raw material. This is the InCI name for octyl salicylate. |
| Uses | octisalate is a uVB protector. This is the drug name for ethylhexyl salicylate and octyl salicylate. |
| Preparation | From 2-ethylhexanol and salicylic acid by azeotropic-type esterification (Arctander, 1969). |
| Brand name | Escalol (ISP Van Dyk); Neo Heliopan (Haarmann & Reimer, Germany); Uvinul (BASF). Note—The International Cosmetic Ingredient (INCI) name for octisalate is octyl salicylate. |
| General Description | 2-Ethylhexyl salicylate(EHS) is an organic ultraviolet(UV) absorber that can be used as a photostable ingredient in cosmetic formulations. It shows an absorption spectra in the range of 280-320 nm in the UV region. |
| Flammability and Explosibility | Nonflammable |
