Documented Uses

• CIR ingredient: Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide
• Not Known or Reasonably Ascertainable
• Tanning agents not otherwise specified
• A 2021 review describes use as a photoinitiator in dental resin composites.
• The European Commission prohibited the use of TPO in cosmetic products beginning on September 1, 2025 (via the adoption of Commission Regulation (EU) 2025/877). This was the result of TPO being classified as a CMR category 1B reproductive toxicant by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/197 under the CLP Regulation (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), and this classification triggered the mandatory inclusion of TPO in Annex II (prohibited substances) of the Cosmetics Regulation via Regulation (EU) 2025/877.
• Cosmetics product ingredient: Diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (Trimethylbenzoyl diphenylphosphine oxide)
