About

Chloro-P-Phenylenediamine is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

2-Chloro-p-phenylenediamine carries multiple toxicity warnings (H302/H312/H332 for acute toxicity, H315/H319 for irritation, H317 for sensitization) and requires a 'Warning' signal word. While not formally restricted under EU Annex III, its chlorinated aromatic structure raises significant safety concerns, and use in consumer cosmetics is strongly discouraged.

Known concerns

  • Acute oral/dermal/inhalation toxicity (H302/H312/H332)
  • Skin and eye irritant (H315/H319)
  • Skin sensitizer (H317)
  • Chlorinated aromatic with structural toxicity concerns
