Revisiting the Role of Irradiance in the Determination of Sunscreens’ Sun Protection Factor [PDF]
The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, 2020 The efficacy of a sunscreen tends to be associated with its sun protection factor (SPF) value, a figure determined in a test that relies on the independence of the SPF value to both UV radiation dose and irradiance. We probe these assumptions when photoinduced product degradation is present, and we estimate that the theoretical limit for their validity
