Expert Verdict
Residual MMA monomer and trimethoxysilylpropyl methacrylate monomer concerns (the latter is a suspected reproductive toxicant per GHS classification and causes skin/eye irritation); however, the crosslinked polymer form at low residual monomer levels is considered safe. An organic-inorganic hybrid crosspolymer; the silane (trimethoxysilyl) groups provide enhanced adhesion to mineral surfaces (pigments, glass, metals), making it especially useful for surface treatment of cosmetic pigments and ...
