Frequently asked questions
- Is butylene/ethylene/propylene copolymer safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification is listed for butylene/ethylene/propylene copolymer (no H360/H361); it is a high‑molecular‑weight synthetic polymer used as a film former and is generally considered inert with negligible systemic absorption from topical use, so no reproductive hazard or mechanism is identified in available regulatory sources.
- Is butylene/ethylene/propylene copolymer safe while breastfeeding?
- Same rationale as pregnancy: no harmonised reproductive classification or published evidence of systemic reproductive/toxic effects; polymers of this type are unlikely to be absorbed in amounts that would pose a lactation exposure concern.
- Is butylene/ethylene/propylene copolymer safe for baby skin?
- No data indicating developmental or infant‑specific reproductive toxicity. As a high‑MW polymer/film former, dermal absorption is expected to be negligible; therefore infant hazard and mechanism scores remain 0. (Infant exposure score not increased because available information indicates minimal percutaneous uptake.)
- How does VeriMom score butylene/ethylene/propylene copolymer?
