Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

At realistic pH values (pH 6 – pH 8) the zeta-potential of Tinosorb A2B is quite negative.

However, in these realistic environments salts are likely to be present and the potential will

be damped to lower values. Overall, the Tinosorb A2B particles in formulation will be

expected to show a negative zeta potential.
