Frequently asked questions

Is trideceth-6 safe during pregnancy?
CIR grouped alkyl PEG ethers (including trideceth‑6) and concluded the family is safe in current cosmetic uses when formulated to be non‑irritating (CIR Final Report on Alkyl PEG Ethers). No harmonised CLP reproductive classifications (H360/H361) were found on ECHA for this CAS and no peer‑reviewed studies demonstrate reproductive/developmental toxicity for trideceth‑6 specifically; dermal absorption is considered low but measurable for long‑chain alkyl ethoxylates, so exposure from topical cosmetic use is low but present.
Is trideceth-6 safe while breastfeeding?
Same rationale as pregnancy: no SCCS/CIR/C&L harmonised flags or convincing reproductive or lactation studies for trideceth‑6; dermal exposure from cosmetics is low but measurable. No data showing placental transfer or milk excretion for trideceth‑6.
Is trideceth-6 safe for baby skin?
No infant‑specific reproductive/toxic mechanism data were found. Because trideceth‑6 has measurable dermal absorption in adults (low), the exposure score for infants is increased by +1 (immature skin barrier, higher surface‑area‑to‑weight), per your scoring rules. CIR considered alkyl PEG ethers safe in current uses but recommended non‑irritating formulations.
