Monobenzone CAS #103-16-2

Monobenzone, chemical name is 4-(Benzyloxy)phenol, Monobenzone is a depigmenting representative, which has the effect of improving the elimination speed of melanin secreted by skin cells, research study It is recommended that the molecular device of its action may be connected to tyrosinase. Furthermore, medical experiments have actually additionally proved that Monobenzone can effectively deal with diseases such as vitiligo, pigmentation as well as pigmentation. Monobenzone is a topical depigmenting representative utilized to deal with hyperpigmentation that obstructs the production of melanin in the skin without destroying melanocytes.
