Title: Use of silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl) triazine derivatives as UV absorbers

Description:
The present invention relates to the use of novel silane, siloxane or polysiloxane bisbiphenyl-triazine derivatives as UV absorbers and their use in sunscreens and/or cosmetic compositions. 
     It is well known that ultraviolet radiation (light) is harmful to human skin. Depending on the wavelength UV radiation causes different types of skin damage. UV-B radiation (about 290 to about 320 nm) is responsible for sunburn and can cause skin cancer. UV-A radiation (about 320 to about 400 nm) while producing tanning of the skin, contributes also to sunburn and the induction of skin cancers. Moreover, the harmful effects of the UV-B radiation may be aggravated by UV-A radiation. 
     Therefore, an effective sunscreen formulation preferably comprises both at least one UV-A and UV-B filter and a broad band UV filter covering the full range from about 290 nm to about 400 nm to prevent the human skin from the damage of sunlight. 
     Besides their screening power on solar radiation UV filters must also have good resistance to water and perspiration and also satisfactory photostability. 
     Unfortunately, many effective organic UV filters have a poor oil-solubility at a certain concentration and tend to crystallization. As a consequence the UV protection efficacy is significantly decreased. 
     It is known that there are lipophilic UV filters like Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (sold under the tradename “Parsol 1789” by DSM) which have the particularity and also the disadvantage of being solid at ambient temperature. As a result, their use in sunscreen cosmetic compositions implies certain constraints in terms of their formulation and their use, in particular the selection of specific suitable cosmetic solvents that afford a proper solubility of these UV filters. Thus, a UV filter should show high solubility in common cosmetic oils or should be a good solvent for other UV filters that show poor oil solubility. 
     Moreover the oil soluble UV filters should be included in cosmetic sun care products without any impact on the sensorial characteristic of the emulsion. For that reason the optimal distribution of the UV absorber within the hydro-lipid film left on the skin after spreading should be guaranteed. 
     It is therefore an object of the present invention to find UV absorber formulations which have improved properties regarding the UV absorber. 
     Surprisingly it has been found that specific silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives have very good properties as cosmetic UV-B absorbers. 
     Therefore, the instant invention relates to the use of silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives as UV absorbers represented by the following general formula

     Each of the above-mentioned light-protective agents, especially the light-protective agents in the above Table indicated as being preferred, can be used in admixture with the silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives according to the invention. It will be understood in that connection that, in addition to the mixtures of the bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives of the present invention, it is also possible for more than one of the additional light-protective agents to be used, for example, two, three, four, five or six further light-protective agents. 
     Other typical ingredients in such formulations are preservatives, bactericides and bacteriostatic agents, perfumes, dyes, pigments, thickening agents, moisturizing agents, humectants, fats, oils, waxes or other typical ingredients of cosmetic and personal care formulations such as alcohols, poly-alcohols, polymers, electrolytes, organic solvents, silicon derivatives, emollients, emulsifiers or emulsifying surfactants, surfactants, dispersing agents, antioxidants, anti-irritants and anti-inflammatory agents etc. 
     The cosmetic compositions contain, for example, from 0.1 to 30% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 15% by weight and especially from 0.5 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives of formula (1) and at least one cosmetically tolerable adjuvant. 
     The cosmetic compositions can be prepared by physically mixing silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives of formula (1) with the adjuvant using customary methods, for example by simply stirring together the individual components, especially by making use of the dissolution properties of already known cosmetic UV absorbers, for example OMC, salicylic acid isooctyl ester, inter alia. The UV absorber can be used, for example, without further treatment, or in the micronized state, or in the form of a powder. 
     The cosmetic compositions may be, for example, creams, gels, lotions, alcoholic and aqueous/alcoholic solutions, emulsions, wax/fat compositions, stick preparations, powders or ointments. 
     As water- and oil-containing emulsions (e.g. W/O, O/W, O/W/O and W/O/W emulsions or microemulsions) the compositions contain, for example, from 0.1 to 30% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 15% by weight and especially from 0.5 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of the silane and siloxane bis(biphenyl)triazine derivatives of formula (1), from 1 to 60% by weight, especially from 5 to 50% by weight and preferably from 10 to 35% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of at least one oil component, from 0 to 30% by weight, especially from 1 to 30% by weight and preferably from 4 to 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of at least one emulsifier, from 10 to 90% by weight, especially from 30 to 90% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition, of water, and from 0 to 88.9% by weight, especially from 1 to 50% by weight, of further cosmetically tolerable adjuvants. 
     As oil components of oil-containing compositions (e.g. oils, W/O, O/W, O/W/O and W/O/W emulsions or microemulsions) there come into consideration, for example, Guerbet alcohols based on fatty alcohols having from 6 to 18, preferably from 8 to 10, carbon atoms, esters of linear C 6 -C 24  fatty acids with linear C 3 -C 24  alcohols, esters of branched C 6 -C 13 carboxylic acids with linear C 6 -C 24  fatty alcohols, esters of linear C 6 -C 24  fatty acids with branched alcohols, especially 2-ethylhexanol, esters of hydroxycarboxylic acids with linear or branched C 6 -C 22  fatty alcohols, especially dioctyl malates, esters of linear and/or branched fatty acids with polyhydric alcohols (for example propylene glycol, dimer diol or trimer triol) and/or Guerbet alcohols, triglycerides based on C 6 -C 10  fatty acids, liquid mono/di-/tri-glyceride mixtures based on C 6 -C 18  fatty acids, esters of C 6 -C 24  fatty alcohols and/or Guerbet alcohols with aromatic carboxylic acids, especially benzoic acid, esters of C 2 -C 12 -dicarboxylic acids with linear or branched alcohols having from 1 to 22 carbon atoms or polyols having from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and from 2 to 6 hydroxy groups, vegetable oils (such as sunflower oil, olive oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, almond oil, jojoba oil, orange oil, wheat germ oil, peach kernel oil and the liquid components of coconut oil), branched primary alcohols, substituted cyclohexanes, linear and branched C 6 -C 22  fatty alcohol carbonates, Guerbet carbonates, esters of benzoic acid with linear and/or branched C 6 -C 22 alcohols (e.g. Finsolv® TN), linear or branched, symmetric or asymmetric dialkyl ethers having a total of from 12 to 36 carbon atoms, especially from 12 to 24 carbon atoms, for example di-n-octyl ether, di-n-decyl ether, di-n-nonyl ether, di-n-undecyl ether, di-n-dodecyl ether, n-hexyl n-octyl ether, n-octyl n-decyl ether, n-decyl n-undecyl ether, n-undecyl n-dodecyl ether, n-hexyl n-undecyl ether, di-tert-butyl ether, diisopentyl ether, di-3-ethyldecyl ether, tert-butyl n-octyl ether, isopentyl n-octyl ether and 2-methyl pentyl-n-octyl ether; ring-opening products of epoxidised fatty acid esters with polyols, silicone oils and/or aliphatic or naphthenic hydrocarbons. Also of importance are monoesters of fatty acids with alcohols having from 3 to 24 carbon atoms. That group of substances comprises the esterification products of fatty acids having from 8 to 24 carbon atoms, for example caproic acid, caprylic acid, 2-ethylhexanoic acid, capric acid, lauric acid, isotridecanoic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid, stearic acid, isostearic acid, oleic acid, elaidic acid, petroselinic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, elaeostearic acid, arachidic acid, gadoleic acid, behenic acid and erucic acid and technical-grade mixtures thereof (obtained, for example, in the pressure removal of natural fats and oils, in the reduction of aldehydes from Roelen&#39;s oxosynthesis or in the dimerisation of unsaturated fatty acids) with alcohols, for example isopropyl alcohol, caproic alcohol, capryl alcohol, 2-ethylhexyl alcohol, capric alcohol, lauryl alcohol, isotridecyl alcohol, myristyl alcohol, cetyl alcohol, palmoleyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, isostearyl alcohol, oleyl alcohol, elaidyl alcohol, petroselinyl alcohol, linoyl alcohol, linolenyl alcohol, elaeostearyl alcohol, arachidyl alcohol, gadoleyl alcohol, behenyl alcohol, erucyl alcohol and brassidyl alcohol and technical-grade mixtures thereof (obtained, for example, in the high-pressure hydrogenation of technical-grade methyl esters based on fats and oils or aldehydes from Roelen&#39;s oxosynthesis and as monomer fractions in the dimerisation of unsaturated fatty alcohols). Of special importance are isopropyl myristate, isononanoic acid C 16 -C 18 alkyl esters, stearic acid 2-ethylhexyl ester, cetyl oleate, glycerol tricaprylate, coconut fatty alcohol caprinate/caprylate and n-butyl stearate. Further oil components that can be used are dicarboxylic acid esters, such as di-n-butyl adipate, di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate, di(2-ethylhexyl) succinate and diisotridecyl acetate, and also diol esters, such as ethylene glycol dioleate, ethylene glycol diisotridecanoate, propylene glycol di(2-ethylhexanoate), propylene glycol diisostearate, propylene glycol dipelargonate, butanediol diisostearate and neopentyl glycol dicaprylate. Preferred mono- or poly-ols are ethanol, isopropanol, propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, glycerol and sorbitol. It is also possible to use di- and/or tri-valent metal salts (alkaline earth metal, Al 3+  inter alia) of one or more alkyl carboxylic acids. 
     The oil components can be used in an amount of, for example, from 1 to 60% by weight, especially from 5 to 50% by weight and preferably from 10 to 35% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. 
     Any conventionally usable emulsifier can be used for the compositions. 
     As emulsifiers there come into consideration, for example, non-ionic surfactants from the following groups:
         addition products of from 2 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide and/or from 0 to 5 mol of propylene oxide with linear fatty alcohols having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms, with fatty acids having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms and with alkylphenols having from 8 to 15 carbon atoms in the alkyl group, for example ceteareth-20 or ceteareth-12;   C 12 -C 22  fatty acid mono- and di-esters of addition products of from 1 to 30 mol of ethylene oxide with polyols having from 3 to 6 carbon atoms, especially with glycerol;   glycerol mono- and di-esters and sorbitan mono- and di-esters of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids having from 6 to 22 carbon atoms and ethylene oxide addition products thereof, for example glyceryl stearates, glyceryl isostearates, glyceryl oleates, sorbitan oleates or sorbitan sesquioleates;   C 8 -C 22 alkyl-mono- and -oligo-glycosides and ethoxylated analogues thereof, degrees of oligomerisation of from 1.1 to 5, especially from 1.2 to 1.4, being preferred, and glucose being preferred as the sugar component;   addition products of from 2 to 60 mol, especially from 15 to 60 mol, of ethylene oxide with castor oil and/or hydrogenated castor oil;   polyol esters and especially polyglycerol esters, for example diisostearoyl polyglyceryl-3-diisostearates, polyglyceryl-3-diisostearates, triglyceryl diisostearates, polyglyceryl-2-sesquiisostearates or polyglyceryl dimerates. Mixtures of compounds from a plurality of those substance classes are also suitable;   partial esters based on linear, branched, unsaturated or saturated C 6 -C 22  fatty acids, ricinoleic acid and also 12-hydroxystearic acid and on glycerol, polyglycerol, pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, sugar alcohols (e.g. sorbitol), alkyl glucosides (e.g. methyl glucoside, butyl glucoside, lauryl glucoside) and also polyglucosides (e.g. cellulose), for example polyglyceryl-2-dihydroxystearates or polyglyceryl-2-diricinoleates;   mono-, di- and tri-alkylphosphates and also mono-, di- and/or tri-PEG-alkylphosphates and salts thereof;   wool wax alcohols;   one or more ethoxylated esters of natural derivatives, for example polyethoxylated esters of hydrogenated castor oil;   silicone oil emulsifiers, for example silicone polyol;   polysiloxane/polyalkyl/polyether copolymers and corresponding derivatives, for example cetyl dimethicone copolyol;   mixed esters of pentaerythritol, fatty acids, citric acid and fatty alcohol (see DE-A-1 165 574) and/or mixed esters of fatty acids having from 6 to 22 carbon atoms, methylglucose and polyols, preferably glycerol or polyglycerol, for example polyglyceryl-3-glucose distearates, polyglyceryl-3-glucose dioleates, methyl glucose dioleates or dicocoyl pentaerythryl distearyl citrates and also   polyalkylene glycols.       

     The addition products of ethylene oxide and/or of propylene oxide with fatty alcohols, fatty acids, alkylphenols, glycerol mono- and di-esters and also sorbitan mono- and di-esters of fatty acids, or with castor oil, are known, commercially available products. They are usually homologue mixtures, the average degree of alkoxylation of which corresponds to the ratio of the amounts of ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide and substrate with which the addition reaction is carried out. C 12 -C 18  fatty acid mono- and di-esters of addition products of ethylene oxide with glycerol are known, for example, from DE-A-2 024 051 as fat-restoring substances for cosmetic preparations. 
     C 8 -C 18 alkyl-mono- and -oligo-glycosides, their preparation and their use are known from the prior art. They are prepared especially by reacting glucose or oligosaccharides with primary alcohols having from 8 to 18 carbon atoms. Suitable glycoside radicals include monoglycolsides in which a cyclic sugar radical is glycosidically bonded to the fatty alcohol and also oligomeric glycosides having a degree of oligomerisation of up to preferably about 8. The degree of oligomerisation is a statistical average value based on a homologue distribution customary for such technical-grade products. 
     It is also possible to use zwitterionic surfactants as emulsifiers. The term “zwitterionic surfactants” denotes especially surface-active compounds that carry at least one quaternary ammonium group and at least one carboxylate and/or sulfonate group in the molecule. Zwitterionic surfactants that are especially suitable are the so-called betaines, such as N-alkyl-N,N-dimethylammonium glycinates, for example cocoalkyldimethylammonium glycinate, N-acylaminopropyl-N,N-dimethylammonium glycinates, for example cocoacylaminopropyldimethylammonium glycinate, and 2-alkyl-3-carboxymethyl-3-hydroxyethylimidazolines each having from 8 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl or acyl group and also cocoacylaminoethylhydroxyethylcarboxymethylglycinate. Special preference is given to the fatty acid amide derivative known by the CTFA name cocamidopropyl betaine. Likewise suitable as emulsifiers are ampholytic surfactants. Ampholytic surfactants are to be understood as meaning especially those which, in addition to containing a C 8 -C 18 -alkyl or -acyl group, contain at least one free amino group and at least one —COON or —SO 3 H group in the molecule and are capable of forming internal salts. Examples of suitable ampholytic surfactants include N-alkylglycines, N-alkylpropionic acids, N-alkylaminobutyric acids, N-alkyliminodipropionic acids, N-hydroxyethyl-N-alkylamidopropylglycines, N-alkyltaurines, N-alkylsarcosines, 2-alkylaminopropionic acids and alkylaminoacetic acids, each having approximately from 8 to 18 carbon atoms in the alkyl group. 
     Ampholytic surfactants to which special preference is given are N-cocoalkylamino-propionate, cocoacylaminoethylaminopropionate and C 12 -C 18 acylsarcosine. In addition to the ampholytic emulsifiers there also come into consideration quaternary emulsifiers, special preference being given to those of the esterquat type, preferably methyl-quaternised di-fatty acid triethanolamine ester salts. 
     Non-ionic emulsifiers are preferred. Of the non-ionic emulsifiers mentioned, special preference is given to ethoxylated fatty alcohols having from 8 to 22 carbon atoms and from 4 to 30 EO units. 
     The emulsifiers may be used in an amount of, for example, from 1 to 30% by weight, especially from 4 to 20% by weight and preferably from 5 to 10% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition. It is, however, also possible in principle to dispense with the use of emulsifiers. 
     The compositions according to the invention, for example creams, gels, lotions, alcoholic and aqueous/alcoholic solutions, emulsions, wax/fat compositions, stick preparations, powders or ointments, may in addition contain, as further adjuvants and additives, mild surfactants, super-fatting agents, pearlescent waxes, consistency regulators, thickeners, polymers, silicone compounds, fats, waxes, stabilisers, biogenic active ingredients, deodorising active ingredients, anti-dandruff agents, film formers, swelling agents, further UV light-protective factors, antioxidants, hydrotropic agents, preservatives, insect repellents, self-tanning agents, solubilizers, perfume oils, colorants, bacteria-inhibiting agents and the like. 
     Substances suitable for use as super-fatting agents are, for example, lanolin and lecithin and also polyethoxylated or acrylated lanolin and lecithin derivatives, polyol fatty acid esters, monoglycerides and fatty acid alkanolamides, the latter simultaneously acting as foam stabilisers. 
     Examples of suitable mild surfactants, that is to say surfactants especially well tolerated by the skin, include fatty alcohol polyglycol ether sulfates, monoglyceride sulfates, monoand/or di-alkyl sulfosuccinates, fatty acid isethionates, fatty acid sarcosinates, fatty acid taurides, fatty acid glutamates, α-olefin sulfonates, ether carboxylic acids, alkyl oligoglucosides, fatty acid glucamides, alkylamidobetaines and/or protein fatty acid condensation products, the latter preferably being based on wheat proteins. 
     As pearlescent waxes there come into consideration, for example: alkylene glycol esters, especially ethylene glycol distearate; fatty acid alkanolamides, especially coco fatty acid diethanolamide; partial glycerides, especially stearic acid monoglyceride; esters of polyvalent, unsubstituted or hydroxy-substituted carboxylic acids with fatty alcohols having from 6 to 22 carbon atoms, especially long-chained esters of tartaric acid; fatty substances, for example fatty alcohols, fatty ketones, fatty aldehydes, fatty ethers and fatty carbonates, which in total have at least 24 carbon atoms, especially laurone and distearyl ether; fatty acids, such as stearic acid, hydroxystearic acid or behenic acid, ring-opening products of olefin epoxides having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms with fatty alcohols having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms and/or polyols having from 2 to 15 carbon atoms and from 2 to 10 hydroxy groups, and mixtures thereof. 
     As consistency regulators there come into consideration especially fatty alcohols or hydroxy fatty alcohols having from 12 to 22 carbon atoms and preferably from 16 to 18 carbon atoms, and in addition partial glycerides, fatty acids and hydroxy fatty acids. Preference is given to a combination of such substances with alkyl-oligoglucosides and/or fatty acid N-methylglucamides of identical chain length and/or polyglycerol poly-12-hydroxystearates.

A detailed survey by Todd et al., of suitable volatile silicones may in addition be found in Cosm. Toil. 91, 27 (1976). 
     Typical examples of fats are glycerides, and as waxes there come into consideration, inter alia, beeswax, carnauba wax, candelilla wax, montan wax, paraffin wax, hydrogenated castor oils and fatty acid esters or microwaxes solid at room temperature optionally in combination with hydrophilic waxes, e.g. cetylstearyl alcohol or partial glycerides.

Natural aromatic substances are, for example, extracts from blossom (lilies, lavender, roses, jasmine, neroli, ylang-ylang), from stems and leaves (geranium, patchouli, petitgrain), from fruit (aniseed, coriander, carraway, juniper), from fruit peel (bergamot, lemons, oranges), from roots (mace, angelica, celery, cardamom, costus, iris, calmus), from wood (pinewood, sandalwood, guaiacum wood, cedarwood, rosewood), from herbs and grasses (tarragon, lemon grass, sage, thyme), from needles and twigs (spruce, pine, Scots pine, mountain pine), from resins and balsams (galbanum, elemi, benzoin, myrrh, olibanum, opoponax). Animal raw materials also come into consideration, for example civet and castoreum. Typical synthetic aromatic substances are, for example, products of the ester, ether, aldehyde, ketone, alcohol or hydrocarbon type. 
     Aromatic substance compounds of the ester type are, for example, benzyl acetate, phenoxy-ethyl isobutyrate, p-tert-butylcyclohexyl acetate, linalyl acetate, dimethyl-benzylcarbinyl acetate, phenylethyl acetate, linalyl benzoate, benzyl formate, ethylmethylphenyl glycinate, allylcyclohexyl propionate, styrallyl propionate and benzyl salicylate.

The colourants are usually used in concentrations of from 0.001 to 0.1% by weight, based on the total mixture. 
     Typical examples of bacteria-inhibiting agents are preservatives that have a specific action against gram-positive bacteria, such as 2,4,4′-trichloro-2′-hydroxydiphenyl ether, chlorhexidine (1,6-di(4-chlorophenyl-biguanido)hexane) or TCC (3,4,4′-trichlorocarbanilide). 
     A large number of aromatic substances and ethereal oils also have antimicrobial properties. Typical examples are the active ingredients eugenol, menthol and thymol in clove oil, mint oil and thyme oil. A natural deodorizing agent of interest is the terpene alcohol farnesol (3,7,11-trimethyl-2,6,10-dodecatrien-1-ol), which is present in lime blossom oil. Glycerol monolaurate has also proved to be a bacteriostatic agent. The amount of the additional bacteria-inhibiting agents present is usually from 0.1 to 2% by weight, based on the solids content of the preparations. 
     It is furthermore possible for the cosmetic compositions to contain, as adjuvants, antifoams, such as silicones, structurants, such as maleic acid, solubilizers, such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol or diethylene glycol, opacifiers, such as latex, styrene/PVP or styrene/acrylamide copolymers, complexing agents, such as EDTA, NTA, β-alaninediacetic acid or phosphonic acids, propellants, such as propane/butane mixtures, N 2 O, dimethyl ether, CO 2 , N 2  or air, so-called coupler and developer components as oxidation dye precursors, reducing agents, such as thioglycolic acid and derivatives thereof, thiolactic acid, cysteamine, thiomalic acid or α-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid, or oxidizing agents, such as hydrogen peroxide, potassium bromate or sodium bromate.

     The solubility data of the bisbiphenyl triazine derivatives S-1, S-2, S-3 and S-5 containing silane and/or siloxane groups according to the instant invention suggest that the novel bisbiphenyl triazine derivatives are particularly highly oilsoluble UV absorbers. 
     Photostability 
     Measurement of Photostability 
     The method used for assessment of photostability is based on the irradiation of a highly diluted solution of the UV-filter. The analysis after certain doses of irradiation was performed by UV-spectroscopy. The concentration of the UV-absorber in ethanol is adjusted to values between 1·10 5  and 1·10 5  mol/l, such that the absorbance of the solution in cuvette of 1 cm optical pathlength is equal or smaller than 0.2. The mutual protection of filter molecules can be excluded under such conditions. 
     Prior to irradiation of a sample the UVB-intensity at the sample position is measured with a UV-radiometer (RM-12, Dr. Grobel Electronic GmbH). This radiometer was calibrated by comparison with a measurement of the spectral output of the metal halide lamp (including light guide and cut-off filter) using a wavelength-resolved radiometer (Gamma C11). Therefore the relationship of the reading of the RM-12 radiometer and the corresponding spectral output of the lamp is known, and one is able to determine the wavelength-resolved intensities by measuring the UVB-intensity. By changing the distance between the end of the light guide and the cuvette, the UVB-intensity can be varied in the range of 100 μW/cm 2  and 4500 μW/cm 2 . 
     For sample irradiation the highest possible intensity was used (4.5 mW/cm 2  UVB-intensity measured with the Macam 103 radiometer). The irradiation time was varied from 0 to 180 min. The dose the sample has received after 180 minutes corresponds to 60 MED. During irradiation the sample was stirred. After certain intervals of irradiation, the samples were analysed in a UV-spectrometer (Perkin Elmer, Lambda 16). 
     From the absorbance values at each dose of irradiation the concentration may be calculated using Lambert-Beer&#39;s law. In order to get the half-life of the substance, a first order kinetic model was fitted to the experimental data. Since the UV-spectrum of the lamp and the UV-spectrum of the COLIPA standard sun are known, one can calculate the respective half-life of the UV-absorber under conditions of COLIPA standard sun irradiation [Bernd Herzog, Stefan Müller, Myriam Sohn, Uli Osterwalder, “New Insight and Prediction of Photostablity of Sunscreens”, SÖFW Journal 133, 26-36 (2007)].
