About

Morpholine Hydrochloride is a cosmetic ingredient. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Morpholine hydrochloride is the salt of a cyclic secondary amine used primarily as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in industrial applications. It presents irritant properties (H315, H319, H335) and may be absorbed through skin. Morpholine itself is listed in EU COSING as a restricted cosmetic ingredient for certain applications, but this salt form is not specifically approved and carries the additional concern of chloride exposure.

Known concerns

  • Skin and eye irritation (H315, H319)
  • Respiratory irritation (H335)
  • Dermal absorption potential
  • Not specifically approved as cosmetic ingredient
