During preformulation studies of cosmetic/pharmaceutical products, thermal analysis techniques are very useful to detect physical or chemical incompatibilities between the active and the excipients of interest that might interfere with safety and/or efficacy of the final product. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used as a screening technique for assessing the compatibility of avobenzone with some currently used cosmetic excipients. In the first phase of the study, DSC was used as a tool to detect any interaction.

Quantitation was achieved using a reversed-phase C18 column at ambient temperature with mobile phase consisting of methanol-water-tetrahydrofuran (25 + 65 + 10, v/v). The flow rate was 0.
