Zincaptis™ is a high-purity, micronised zinc oxide that is surface-treated with a lipid coating. This enhances its dispersibility, stability, and compatibility in modern cosmetic formulations, especially sunscreens and skin care.

The lipid coating improves skin feel, reduces whitening on application, enhances uniform dispersion in both oil and water-based systems, and minimizes photocatalytic activity—making it safer and more effective.

Zincaptis™ has a controlled micronised particle size range (typically <200 nm), ensuring high transparency on skin while maintaining effective broad-spectrum UV protection.

Yes, Zincaptis™ functions as a mineral (inorganic) UV filter that provides broad-spectrum protection against both UVA and UVB rays without chemical absorption.

Compared to uncoated zinc oxide, Zincaptis™ offers superior stability, ease of formulation, lower reactivity, and an aesthetically pleasing finish due to the lipid surface treatment.

Yes, Zincaptis™ is non-irritating, non-comedogenic, and highly suitable for sensitive, reactive, or baby skin due to its mild, inert nature and protective barrier function.

For best performance, pre-dispersion in emollients or silicone carriers is recommended. High-shear mixing or bead milling may be used to achieve uniform distribution.

It acts as a broad-spectrum UV blocker by scattering and reflecting UV rays. Its efficacy depends on concentration, dispersion quality, and synergy with other UV filters.

Absolutely. It is widely used in daily moisturizers, primers, day creams, and protective lotions offering non-irritating daily UV defense.

Zincaptis™ is ideal for sunscreens, BB creams, mineral makeup, sensitive-skin moisturizers, after-sun care, baby lotions, and multifunctional anti-pollution products.
