Stability
While general epoxy resins exhibit notable pH stability, particularly in alkaline environments (e.g., pH 2-13), specific stability data for STEAROYL EPOXY RESIN within cosmetic formulations or its optimal pH range is not available.
Safety
Safety Profile
No dedicated safety assessments from regulatory bodies such as CIR, SCCS, or FDA exist for STEAROYL EPOXY RESIN specifically as a cosmetic ingredient. It is important to note that the broader class of epoxy resins are industrial chemicals known to potentially cause eye damage, skin irritation, or sensitization, requiring stringent caution during the handling of uncured forms.
