¿Es polyamide-6 seguro durante el embarazo?
No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications for polyamide‑6 (ECHA Annex VI) and no CIR or SCCS safety concerns found specific to polyamide‑6; as a high‑MW polymer it has negligible dermal penetration in typical cosmetic use (sources: ECHA Annex VI, ECHA registration dossiers, PubChem). Residual monomer (caprolactam) is a separate issue but, in properly manufactured polymer, is expected at low levels and not sufficient to change hazard classification.

- No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications for polyamide‑6 (ECHA Annex VI) and no CIR or SCCS safety concerns found specific to polyamide‑6; as a high‑MW polymer it has negligible dermal penetration in typical cosmetic use (sources: ECHA Annex VI, ECHA registration dossiers, PubChem).

- ¿Es polyamide-6 seguro durante la lactancia?
- Same rationale as pregnancy: no evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific hazard for polyamide‑6 itself and low likelihood of systemic availability from topical use (sources: ECHA registration dossiers, PubChem, CosIng). Breastmilk transfer is not expected for high‑MW, non‑absorbed polymers.
- ¿Es polyamide-6 seguro para la piel del bebé?
- Hazard and mechanism remain unsupported for the polymer itself. Exposure score increased by +1 for infants (per instruction) because infant skin is more permeable; although polyamide‑6 is high‑MW and likely minimally absorbed, immature barrier gives a low but measurable potential for greater exposure compared with adults. If significant residual caprolactam/oligomers are present, exposure and hazard could change, but data on residuals in cosmetic grades were not identified.
