A review. Demalanizing agent are the agents which causes inhibition of synthesis of melanin and thus prevent hyperpigmentation on skin. They lighten the skin. They are used as single component or along with combinations of demalanizing agent also known as skin whitening agents. Commonly used examples are hydroquinone mequinol, Azelaic acid, monobenzone, tretinoin, ascorbic acid,etc. These agents are used in light induced pigmentations, heperimentations due to sun burn and melisma and chloasma of pregnancy. Certain agents are used in cosmetics, generally plant extracts which has less irritancy are used. The hyperpigmentation caused by skin whitening agents is not ‘curable’ and will persist for a lifetime. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as 4-Benzyloxyphenol (cas: 103-16-2Product Details of 103-16-2).
4-Benzyloxyphenol (cas: 103-16-2) belongs to ethers. Volatile esters with characteristic odours are used in synthetic flavours, perfumes, and cosmetics. Certain volatile esters are used as solvents for lacquers, paints, and varnishes. Liquid esters of low volatility serve as softening agents for resins and plastics. Esters also include many industrially important polymers. Polymethyl methacrylate is a glass substitute sold under the names Lucite and Plexiglas; polyethylene terephthalate is used as a film (Mylar) and as textile fibres sold as Terylene, Fortrel, and Dacron.Product Details of 103-16-2
