Alcance y aplicabilidad

This standard applies to skin-protective agents used in occupational workplaces. It covers six specific product categories: waterproof, oil-proof, shading, cleansing, repellent, and film-forming skin-protective agents. This standard is mandatory for all manufacturers producing occupational skin-protective products for the Chinese market. It does not apply to general consumer cosmetics, as it strictly focuses on occupational health and safety.

Requisitos técnicos

The standard specifies strict requirements for the raw materials, microbiological indicators, and harmful substance limits of occupational skin-protective agents. Raw materials must comply with the Safety and Technical Standards for Cosmetics. It sets strict limits for total colony counts, mold and yeast, and specific pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It outlines toxicological testing and human safety trial requirements based on the product category. This includes acute oral and dermal toxicity, skin irritation, sensitization, phototoxicity, and human patch tests. Manufacturers must ensure their products pass the specific toxicological tests assigned to their product category. The standard defines protective performance parameters. For instance, shading agents must meet a minimum SPF value, cleansing agents have a maximum decontamination time, and repellent agents require a minimum effective protection time. Additionally, physicochemical indicators require the pH value to be between 4.0 and 10.0, along with thermal and cold resistance stability.

Métodos de ensayo

Testing primarily follows the methods specified in the Safety and Technical Standards for Cosmetics. Specific tests include pH value determination according to GB/T 13531.1 at (20±1)°C, effective protection time for repellents per GB/T 13917.9, and acute inhalation toxicity testing according to GB/T 15670.6. The standard also includes normative appendices detailing the testing method for decontamination time and the evaluation methods for thermal and cold resistance.
