About

A nitro-substituted aromatic amine with irritant properties, used at low concentrations in oxidative hair dye systems.

This compound carries H302 (oral toxicity), H315/319 (skin/eye irritation), H332 (inhalation toxicity), and H335 (respiratory irritation) statements. The irritant profile suggests caution is needed during handling, though use at up to 2.0% in rinse-off hair dye formulations is considered acceptable under current EU cosmetic safety assessments.

Known concerns

  • Skin and eye irritation (H315, H319)
  • Respiratory irritation (H335)
  • Oral toxicity (H302)
  • Acute inhalation toxicity (H332)
