Expert Verdict
Not CIR-reviewed. Safety argument requires read-across dossier from dimethicone/PEG-10/15 crosspolymer and dimethicone/bis-isobutyl PPG-20 crosspolymer. Both PEG and PPG components present dual risk of 1,4-dioxane (PEG) and propylene oxide (PPG) residuals. CPSR assessor will likely require supplier CoA with residual monomer specifications.
