Dois-je éviter cyclotetrasiloxane pendant la grossesse ? | VeriMom

Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4; CAS 556-67-2) has a harmonised CLP classification Repr. 2 (H361f) in ECHA’s Annex VI (CLH) and is listed with aquatic chronic H410; ECHA’s CLH and registration dossiers report reproductive effects in rodent studies and mechanistic papers describe possible endocrine-related modes of action, supporting a suspected reproductive hazard (h=2, m=2). Topical cosmetic exposure is generally lower than inhalation in animal studies; dermal absorption is measurable but limited for this volatile, lipophilic siloxane, so exposure from typical cosmetic use is scored low but measurable (e=1). Sources: ECHA CLH / brief profile; rodent reproductive studies and mechanistic reviews.

Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4; CAS 556-67-2) has a harmonised CLP classification Repr. 2 (H361f) in ECHA’s Annex VI (CLH) and is listed with aquatic chronic H410; ECHA’s CLH and registration dossiers report reproductive effects in rodent studies and mechanistic papers describe possible endocrine-related modes of action, supporting a suspected reproductive hazard (h=2, m=2).

cyclotetrasiloxane est-il sûr pendant l'allaitement ?
Harmonised H361f (ECHA) and animal reproductive/developmental data justify treating D4 as a suspected reproductive toxicant (h=2) with demonstrated mechanistic evidence of endocrine-related effects in rodents (m=2). D4 is lipophilic and bioaccumulative in tissues and therefore has potential to partition into milk; for a breastfeeding parent systemic exposure and transfer to milk are plausible from repeated exposure—exposure scored moderate (e=2). Key regulatory/peer-reviewed sources report bioaccumulation and reproductive findings supporting this assessment.
cyclotetrasiloxane est-il sûr pour la peau de bébé ?
Because D4 carries a harmonised Repr. 2 classification (H361f) and rodent data indicate reproductive/developmental effects and endocrine-related modes of action, the hazard (h=2) and mechanism (m=2) are applied. Measurable dermal absorption for adults is reported (e=1); per your instruction baby-skin exposure is increased by +1 when adult absorption is measurable, giving e=2 for ages 0–3. Note: EU measures restrict/ban D4 in cosmetic products due to environmental and health concerns, reflecting the regulatory weight behind the hazard designation.
