Properties
COVASCREEN WTI is an aqueous dispersion of alumina-coated microfine titanium dioxide which is easy to use in all
cosmetic emulsions or aqueous suspensions. COVASCREEN WTI:
shows superior protection against UV radiation
has a primary particle size of 15 nanometer
exhibits high transparency and no skin whitening
The main advantage of using a dispersion versus a powder is the higher SPF values achievable with the dispersion. To guarantee
a good SPF and the best transparency on skin, the dispersion should be as fine as possible. Maintaining the particle
distribution in a narrow range, it is possible to decrease the whitening effect and optimize the UV protection.
