Stability

Specific stability data for Glyceryl Methacrylate is not available. While information exists for the related but distinct chemical Glycidyl Methacrylate regarding its high reactivity, polymerization, and violent reactions with various agents, these properties cannot be directly attributed to Glyceryl Methacrylate.


Safety

CIR Status
Insufficient data
Sensitization risk Unknown

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has found insufficient data to assess the safety of Glyceryl Methacrylate as a cosmetic ingredient. It is critical to differentiate this monomer from Glyceryl Polymethacrylate (a polymer), which the CIR Panel deemed safe for cosmetic use at concentrations up to 1.9% in leave-on products. Additionally, Glycidyl Methacrylate, a structurally similar but chemically distinct substance, is explicitly prohibited in cosmetic products under EU Regulation 1223/2009 due to its specific hazard profile.
