What is the anti-oxidation strength of fullerene?
The antioxidant activity of fullerene is 125 times stronger than that of Vitamin C. Moreover, fullerene is an effective scavenger of various kinds of radicals, which are generated on the skin, such as lipid radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and superoxide anion radicals. Scientists have found Fullerene is an excellent anti-oxidant material, and that is why, VitaminC60 BioResearch Corporation (VC60) started the development of the world’s first cosmetic ingredient with Fullerene named Radical Spongeā¢. The Radical Sponge rapidly captured interest from the cosmetic industry in Japan as an effective ingredient for brightening and anti-aging.
