About

Methylpentanediol Dineopentanoate is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Methylpentanediol dineopentanoate is an ester of methylpentanediol with neopentanoic acid, functioning as an emollient and skin-conditioning agent in cosmetic formulations. The ingredient lacks regulatory restriction in EU Annexes, indicating no identified safety concern under normal cosmetic use conditions. While no specific SCCS opinion exists, its structural components (methylpentanediol and pivalic acid) are both considered to have low systemic toxicity concerns.
