Frequently asked questions
- Is nylon-11 safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification for nylon‑11 (ECHA Annex VI). Available regulatory and database entries (PubChem, ECHA dossiers, CosIng) describe nylon‑11 as a high‑molecular‑weight polymer/film former with negligible dermal systemic absorption reported; no peer‑reviewed reproductive or developmental toxicity data identified that would indicate hazard. No CIR or SCCS safety assessment raising reproductive concerns was found.
- Is nylon-11 safe while breastfeeding?
- As for pregnancy: no evidence of reproductive or lactation toxicity, no harmonised classification, and nylon‑11 is a large polymer with very low expected percutaneous absorption, making transfer to breastmilk unlikely. No CIR/SCCS warnings or published studies indicating risk during breastfeeding were found.
- Is nylon-11 safe for baby skin?
- Nylon‑11 is a high molecular weight polyamide used as a film former; percutaneous absorption is expected to be negligible even on infant skin. Given absence of reproductive/toxicological signals and no regulatory classifications, hazard and mechanism scores remain 0. Exposure score is not increased because the substance is not reported to be systemically bioavailable.
