Safety Profile
Specific safety assessments for POLYACRYLATE-53 by the CIR or SCCS are unavailable. However, the CIR has generally evaluated 'Acrylates Copolymers' as safe in cosmetics when formulated to prevent irritation. The FDA has approved 'Polyacrylic acid, sodium salt' (Sodium Polyacrylate) as an indirect food additive, and its safety data sheets suggest it is not classified as hazardous and is non-irritating to the skin, though it may cause serious eye irritation.
