About Di-HEMA TMHDC

Di-HEMA TMHDC (Di-HEMA Trimethylhexyl Dicarbamate) was introduced as a 'safer' alternative to HEMA. However, studies show it is cross-reactive with HEMA and can trigger reactions in individuals already sensitized to HEMA. Many products labeled 'HEMA-free' contain Di-HEMA TMHDC — which is technically accurate but misleading. Our checker flags both ingredients.
