UV Filter – TTO-V-3 (10 nm)

Ultrafine titanium dioxide for transparent UVB protection and clean formulation.
TTO-V-3 disperses easily in oil and delivers safe, stable sun care performance.

High-Transparency UV Filter for Sensitive and Lightweight Sunscreens

TTO-V-3 is an ultrafine, rutile-type titanium dioxide UV filter produced via wet process, with a primary particle size of 10 nm. It offers UVB protection in the 290–320 nm range and has excellent transmittance in the visible spectrum, making it suitable for transparent sunscreens without white cast.

Thanks to its low cohesiveness and fine particle size, TTO-V-3 disperses easily in oil using a homogenizing mixer, allowing for flexible and stable integration into various sun care formulations. Its safe profile and low heavy metal content make it ideal for sensitive skin and clean-label products.

NAGASE supplies TTO-V-3 globally for transparent, effective sun protection formulations – with full technical support and reliable logistics.
