About
Disulfide, Bis(thiocarbamoyl) is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Bis(thiocarbamoyl) disulfide is a thiocarbamate derivative used in some cosmetic or personal care formulations. Thiocarbamates as a class are subject to regulatory scrutiny in the EU due to sensitisation potential. While not specifically listed in EU Annex II, thiocarbamate compounds may be restricted under general safety provisions if sensitisation data warrant it. Environmental toxicity (H411) is also a concern for aquatic environments.
