This invention provides a
phenolic acid-modified attapulgite composite sunscreen agent, its preparation method, and applications, as well as a Pickering
sunscreen lotion, belonging to the field of cosmetic technology. The method of this invention includes
acid treatment of attapulgite, surfactant modification, loading of
phenolic acid biomolecules, and hydrophobic modification. Using modified attapulgite as a carrier, this invention loads
phenolic acid biomolecules through
electrostatic adsorption to construct a composite synergistic
system, and further modifies the surface with hydrophobicity to obtain a composite sunscreen agent with high stability and excellent
sun protection performance. The sunscreen agent prepared by this invention combines physical shielding and biological protection functions, exhibiting excellent
UV absorption capacity, good dispersibility,
skin compatibility, and a pleasant feel on the
skin. It solves the problems of
nanoparticle aggregation, whitening, and poor photostability in existing sunscreen products, making it suitable for the cosmetic sunscreen field. It can achieve broad-spectrum UVA / UVB protection,
antioxidant properties, and soothing repair, showing broad application prospects.
