Benzophenone is widely utilized in research focused on:
- UV Protection: Commonly used in sunscreens and cosmetic products, it absorbs UV radiation, helping to protect skin from harmful effects and prevent premature aging.
- Photoinitiators: In the manufacturing of polymers and coatings, it serves as a photoinitiator, enabling the curing process under UV light, which enhances product durability and performance.
- Flavor and Fragrance Industry: Employed as a fragrance ingredient, it contributes to the scent profile of various products, providing a pleasant aroma in perfumes and household items.
- Analytical Chemistry: Used as a standard in UV-Vis spectroscopy, it aids researchers in calibrating instruments and ensuring accurate measurements in chemical analysis.
- Plastics and Coatings: Acts as a stabilizer in plastics, preventing degradation from UV exposure, which extends the lifespan of products like outdoor furniture and automotive parts.
