Frequently asked questions

Is c20-24 olefin safe during pregnancy?
No harmonised CLP classification (ECHA Annex VI) or SCCS/CIR safety assessment indicating reproductive hazard for C20-24 olefin; PubChem/ECHA registration dossiers contain no reproductive or developmental hazard data triggering H360/H361. As a high-molecular-weight hydrocarbon, dermal systemic absorption is expected to be negligible in adults (sources: ECHA registration information, PubChem, CosIng).
Is c20-24 olefin safe while breastfeeding?
No evidence in regulatory listings (ECHA, PubChem, CosIng) or peer-reviewed literature of developmental or lactation-specific toxicity or mammary transfer; no harmonised classifications or CIR/SCCS warnings identified, so default no reproductive hazard applies.
Is c20-24 olefin safe for baby skin?
Same lack of reproductive hazard evidence as adults (h=0, m=0). Exposure score increased to 1 because although adult dermal absorption is expected negligible for very long‑chain olefins, infant skin barrier immaturity and higher surface-area-to-weight make low but measurable systemic exposure possible; no infant‑specific toxicity data were found.
