About this function
The SOLVENT function is assigned by the European Commission in the CosIng ingredient inventory. Ingredients may carry multiple functions depending on their chemical properties and typical cosmetic applications.
Function assignments are sourced directly from official EU CosIng data. Always verify ingredient functions against current source materials before use in regulatory submissions.
