Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire
Because of the frequency and after passing the final exam of the course “Biomaterials, pigments and sunscreens in cosmetic formulations”, the student -has acquired knowledge of the structure, properties and application of the main biocompatible macromolecules used in cosmetics; -knowledge of the basic elements of kinetic and thermodynamic stability of colloidal systems like dispersions and emulsions; -knowledge on the main photochemical and photophysical processes and of the optical processes at the base of color production and perception; -knowledge on the cosmetics oxidative processes under solar radiation and the main skin protection strategies; -can understand the role of surfactants and additives in cosmetic formulations;- understand the properties of dyes and pigment and assess the best approaches for their dispersion; -can select optimal strategies for photoprotection of the skin and the development of photosafe cosmetics; -can apply the gained knowledge to real problems as well as to new issues related to biomaterials, pigments and sunscreens in cosmetic formulations.
