Effects of solvent and micellar encapsulation on the photostability of avobenzone

The photodegradation of avobenzone (AV), the only ultraviolet filter molecule approved by the Food and Drug Administration to absorb UVA radiation, is an important problem in sunscreen formulations. In this paper, the photophysics and photostability of AV in various solvent systems and in aqueous mi...
