A novel, modified polypyrrole/
Cannabidiol's stability and functional properties were investigated. The phytocannabinoid showed excellent antioxidant, anti-collagenase along with antimicrobial against Gram-positive bacterial fungal species which suggest opportunities as an ingredient in topical products.
Abstract This study focuses on the synthesis and characterization of 2D polygonic ZnO microplatelets for application as UV filters in sunscreens. are obtained via a simple method involving chemical precipitation, aging, calcination. XRD, SEM, TEM analyses confirm successful formation microplatelets. DRUV‐Vis studies indicate that have band gap energy value 3.2 eV exhibit good radiation absorption, similar to commercial reference sample. Furthermore, methylene blue photodegradation studies,...
