Article Synopsis
- Scientists are trying to find better and safer ingredients for sunscreens because some current ones might not be effective or safe enough.
- They studied eight new compounds created from combining different materials to see how well they absorb UV rays.
- The results showed that some of these new compounds could absorb UV rays better and had good antioxidant properties, which means they can help protect skin from harm.
The original version of this article unfortunately contained mistakes. Table 1 was missing and the presentation of Table 2 was incorrect. In Table 2, the second [λexp (nm)] and last [MAD] columns, many values are wrongly in the same cell/line.

Among the effective and modern sunscreens, triazine compounds are known as an important class based on their physical-chemical properties, such as photostability and UV broad-spectrum absorption (UVA and UVB). Molecular modeling and quantum mechanical calculations approaches can be helpful to orientate the design of sunscreens.
