Are there any independent studies (ie not from DuPont) which confirm the safety(nontoxic)of the material? I've read that it flakes off when burned...

I've experienced a burned guard, but have not had flakes fall off. When it was burned, I put in washing machine to clean. Stain was still there but it was definitely useable....

I purchased mine about 3 mo. ago. I use it daily for frothing milk and I hand wash it daily. It gets to temperatures over 150 deg. daily. The markings are as clear as new. Therefore I don't suspect any residue or toxic issues.

Yes. It is listed as bisphenol A free, so there is no need to be concerned about the synthetic carbon compound to be released after a repeated exposures to high heat.

It's garbage. It reeks horribly... I believe it's got a polyurethane wrapping, which is responsible for the majority of the off-gassing. Big, giant notice stating that it meets CA flammability requirements, AKA it's chock full of flame retardant chemicals. Not at all non-toxic.

Your question about heat n bond got me wonering so I took a scrap of it and poured boiling water on it and it didn't do anything to it, the water just rolled off of it without damage it. As far as being flammable I think only the company can answer that question. Hope this helps.

It is not flammable as something like alcohol. It is 35% Hydrogen peroxide so it is high in oxygen content so it will burn your unprotected skin. I do not use heat with it so I cannot answer the second part of your question.

If you speak with a rep who sells Nerium, they will tell you yes, since I only bought from Amazon, I don't have anything to compare it with. I did discover if you wet your fingers before apply it cuts down on the burning, and after using for a month I am not having any issues with burning now

Possibly ask the manufacturer? I know this is months late and I apologize for neglecting the email. I don't think it is a terribly high temp, but I wouldn't touch it with bare skin. It melted the stencil material that I bought to use with it just fine; I'm thinking it's in the ballpark temperature of a wood-burning pen, but I don't know how many degrees that is.

It's safe and non-toxic and it cleans great. But I would check with your local health department first. The manufacturer could probably email you a MSDS (material safety data sheet) to submit to your agency.

I would say no. There is no recycle symbol on the label and the residue of the contents which are flammable would have to be washed out. There is also a caution about not comming in contact with the skin. My skin is sensative, but I have never had an issue with it.

No. I see no sign of melting. The bulb is warm enough to touch and not fear burn. I'll keep an eye on this, and should I see otherwise, will let you know.

I have never experienced any burning. Actually it has a cool sensation when applied. I would not continue using if it's burning. You may be having a reaction to the product. Or maybe you have break in the skin in that area?

It's not flammable nor emit any toxic vapor. I found the interior protect by Green earth more value for money with same effects but the best one is Nanox interior protect by (Hi-Gear NX5264e Nanotechnology Interior Protectant, Hi-Gear NX5264e Nanotechnology Interior Protectant )superior among all nano product for water repellent effects on glass n most solid surface such as granite, marble, car polish, wind screen, shower screen.

Hmm. Great question. Nope. There is no information as to toxicity on the label. As this plastic seems to be infinitely remold-able I doubt that there is any out-gassing happening. The product is not soluble in the human body. The only danger I can see would be of choking/blockage so I would not want to swallow a hot/warm glob of this product. Children need to be supervised when using ThermoMorph due to the high temperature needed to mold the product.

Yes, according to MSDS, it is non-toxic, and it washes off completely leaving no residue. As long as you wash the item after polishing, you are safe.

aluminum oxidizes instantly, and this process strips the "natural" oxide coating and this material forms a protective barrier. i never turn up high heat even with this product, and have not seen any surface damage. my concern with scratches in teflon is that it might also flake off and really did not want to eat that product. The issue was that it might also out-gas with extremely high heat applied.
