Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name 2-HYDROXYPROPYL ACRYLATE.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

Hydroxypropyl acrylate

Hydroxypropyl acrylate appears as a clear colorless liquid. Toxic by inhalation and skin absorption. Corrosive to tissue. May polymerize exothermically if heated or contaminated. If the polymerization takes place inside a container, the container may rupture violently. Vapors heavier than air. Used to make plastics. — CAMEO Chemicals
