quaternary ammonium compounds for hand sanitisers
Hi, I noticed that many hand sanitisers contain Benzalkonium chloride or Benzethonium chloride. I checked their safety data sheets and they are toxic. I also read that they can cause irritation. I am a bit worry to use this products on my hands and wondering if there are restrictions on the use of these compound for hand sanitisers or some guidelines on how to keep a formulation with this compounds safe.
Any advice will be really appreciated, thanks.
