Description

LUMERIUM – Cosmetics

CAS: 99685-96-8

LUMERIUM C60 is a high-purity fullerene C60 ingredient designed specifically for cosmetic and dermatological applications. Known as a powerful “radical sponge”, fullerene C60 neutralizes free radicals more effectively than vitamins C and E, making it a unique anti-aging and skin-protective active.

Key Benefits for Cosmetics:

• Potent antioxidant capacity — protects skin from UV and pollution-induced oxidative stress.

• Clinically demonstrated wrinkle reduction and anti-aging effects【Ref.1】.

• Helps preserve collagen and skin elasticity【Ref.4】.

• Contributes to skin brightening by reducing melanin production【Ref.5】.

• Stable in formulations; synergistic with vitamins and oils.

 

SOLVENT FREE GRADE:
Grade: 99.99%  (SOL5060-LM-YY) – Solvent-free* – ™ Very Ultra High Purity grade

 

SUBLIMED GRADE:
Grade: 99.99%  (SOL5060-LM-S) – Solvent-free* – ™ Very Ultra High Purity grade

 

™ *products:

These C60 products are going through further processes in order to be highly soluble in organic solvents, oils and other related medias.
Time to dissolve/disperse in (provided as a guideline only):
Toluene: Few seconds to few minutes (max 3 g/L)
o-DCB: Few seconds to few minutes (max 24 g/L)
Olive oil: 3-5 days (to 0.8-1g/L, vs 2 weeks for most common C60 powder)

*Solvents and volatiles are removed by subjecting the C60 to a controlled heat-cool process under dynamic inert medical nitrogen in order to suppress oxidation and preserve its pristine nature.
