Frequently asked questions
- Is ethylene/acrylic acid copolymer safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific reproductive/toxicology data found. Adult topical dermal absorption is considered negligible for this high-MW polymer; however, immature infant skin has higher permeability, so exposure score is increased by +1 for 0–3 yr (resulting in low but measurable potential exposure). No mechanistic or developmental hazards identified (sources: CosIng, PubChem, ECHA registration material).
- Is ethylene/acrylic acid copolymer safe for newborns?
