About
Methoxyphenyl T-Butylphenyl Propanediol is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Methoxyphenyl t-butylphenyl propanediol (CAS 955359-35-0) is a diol used in cosmetic formulations for its skin conditioning properties. It is classified H315 (skin irritation) and H411 (aquatic chronic toxicity), requiring caution in leave-on formulations. The combination of aromatic methoxyphenyl and t-butylphenyl groups suggests potential for skin penetration and systemic exposure, leading to a lower safety score despite regulatory gaps.
