BHT: what it is
BHT is described in the entry as a substituted toluene, with 2,6-Di-tert-butyl-p-cresol listed as a chemical designation. These details make the ingredient's identity more specific than the INCI abbreviation alone.
CAS number 128-37-0 and EC number 204-881-4 accompany that reference. They help recognise the substance in the record without stating concentration, formula combination or the effect of a particular product.
BHT: what it does in cosmetics
BHT is classified as ANTIOXIDANT and FRAGRANCE. The entry records an antioxidant function and a fragrance-related function for the ingredient within a cosmetic composition.
Those classifications describe technical roles assigned to BHT. They do not establish the result of use in a package, the amount used, interaction with other components or a promise about the finished product.
BHT: conditions and care
The entry associates BHT with restriction III / 325. No maximum concentration, condition of use or accompanying text is provided to explain the scope of the code in this record.
The available information is therefore limited to the existence of the recorded restriction. Without the corresponding explanation, the code cannot establish a numerical limit, use instruction or conclusion about safety.
