Overview

Nanocomposite shows improved UVA/UVB profile and HEV light absorption, indicating better sunscreen efficacy.

Key Points

  • The Ag2O-ZnO-TiO2 nanocomposite demonstrated enhanced protection against high-energy visible light absorption.
  • In vitro SPF tests indicated that the nanocomposite provided moderate UV protection, similar to conventional TiO2.
  • Synthesis via sol-gel co-doping incorporated Ag2O, improving photocatalytic activity and contributing to plasmonic effects.
  • Crystallite sizes measurable by X-ray diffraction ranged from 28.6 to 33.2 nm, with notable absorption extending into the HEV region.
