Frequently asked questions
- Is di(t-butylcyclohexyl) peroxydicarbonate safe for baby skin?
- No infant- or developmental‑toxicity data were located. Following the instructions to increase exposure for baby skin when adult absorption is measurable, exposure is increased by +1 (adult e=1 → baby e=2). Hazard and mechanism remain 0 due to lack of any reproductive/developmental evidence or specific infant toxicity data. Note: peroxydicarbonates are used industrially as polymerization initiators and carry physical hazards (instability, decomposition) in SDSs but that does not equate to reproductive hazard.
