Expert Verdict

Residual monomer concerns: Phthalic anhydride is a respiratory sensitizer (H334) and skin sensitizer (H317). Glycidyl esters carry epoxide genotoxicity alerts. Supplier must provide residual monomer specs. Primarily used in nail products where dermal exposure is limited to nail plate. Migration of monomer is typically below limit of detection.
