Resumo: |
Human skin is constantly exposed to the harmful effects of solar radiation due to the presence of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and skin cancer is more frequent in Brazil. Another effect caused by excess sun exposure besides skin cancer is photoaging which motivates the population to use sunscreens. Sunscreens can be classified into chemical (organic) filters and/or physical (inorganic) filters. Physical UV filters are filters containing a broad spectrum that absorb, reflect and disperse UV light so they have a wider range of protection. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, classified as inert particles, are singled out as the best way to protect the skin against the harmful effects of ultraviolet UVB and UVA radiation, respectively. One of the disadvantages of these constituents is that they have white coloration on the skin, decreasing its acceptability. With the use of nanotechnology, they allow the product to form a more transparent film possible on the skin thus increasing its acceptability. In this work, the physico-chemical characteristics and the ability to form a core-shell system between TiO2 and ZnO were constructed and evaluated by constructing a nanostructured system for the absorption and scattering of UV radiation. Samples of titanium dioxide, titanium dioxide coated with silicon dioxide, zinc oxide, titanium dioxide and zinc, zinc oxide and the TiO2 / SiO2/ZnO compound were synthesized. The analysis of X-ray diffraction that allowed the observation of the crystalline phase of the oxides, was used the UV/VIS spectrophotometry to analyze in which UV/VIS region the oxides are absorbing, the diffuse reflectance spectrophotometry technique in which it was observed The region in which TiO2 and TiO2/SiO2, defining the SiO2 critical thickness, and the transmission electron microscopy for visualization of the TiO2 and TiO2/SiO2layers. The studies were complemented with the evaluation of the photostability of the materials. The material is promising for an effective and safe sunscreen, whereby toxicity testing as well as assessing the permeation profile are required. |
