Expert Verdict

Amino group is a sensitization flag; the aminoethyl moiety can increase skin reactivity versus non-amino PEG/PPG dimethicones. CPSR must address this with HRIPT or QRA data from supplier. D4/D5 and 1,4-dioxane impurity controls required. pH-dependent behavior: amino group protonates below pH 6, changing charge and conditioning properties; formulate accordingly.
