Frequently asked questions
- Is polyurethane-14 safe during pregnancy?
- No harmonised CLP reproductive classification (no H360/H361) and no CIR or SCCS safety opinion identifying reproductive risks for polyurethane-14. As a high-molecular-weight polymer/film former it is expected to have negligible systemic absorption from topical cosmetic use, so default hazard/mechanism/exposure scores are 0.
- Is polyurethane-14 safe while breastfeeding?
- No evidence of reproductive or lactation-specific toxicity in authoritative sources; no harmonised classification. Polymer nature and lack of reports of systemic reproductive effects indicate negligible concern for breastfeeding exposure via topical use.
- Is polyurethane-14 safe for baby skin?
- No infant-specific reproductive or systemic toxicity data located in authoritative cosmetic safety sources. Polyurethane-14 is a large polymeric film former with expected minimal percutaneous absorption; therefore no increase in hazard or mechanism scores. Exposure score not increased because available information indicates negligible absorption even on immature skin.
