About
TRIMETHYL-1-CYCLOHEXENYLACRYLONITRILE is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulation. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
Trimethyl-1-Cyclohexenylacrylonitrile is a synthetic nitrile fragrance compound with a cyclohexene ring system. The H319 classification indicates eye irritation potential. It is not listed in EU Annex II (banned substances) or Annex III (restricted substances) of the Cosmetics Regulation, suggesting it is permitted for cosmetic use at normal concentrations. However, the nitrile functional group and unsaturated structure warrant caution in formulation.
