Stability
The ingredient's highly crystalline isocyanurate core contributes to reduced extraction into aqueous phases. However, comprehensive chemical stability data specific to cosmetic formulation contexts is not widely documented in standard safety data sheets.
Safety
Safety Profile
While the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has not undertaken a specific evaluation of this compound for skincare use, general GHS classifications, based on data from 282 companies, indicate it does not meet standard hazard criteria. It holds approval as a food contact material in the United States, primarily used as an antioxidant-stabilizer in polyolefin films for non-fatty food packaging.
