On average, pantiliners contained 8.4 compounds, and maxi pads 11. Common compound groups included wood pulp and cellulose materials (100%), polyolefins (100%), adhesives (88.2%), metallic pigments (80.6%), polyethylene glycol (PEG) (72.3%), and unspecified pigments (61.7%). Organic pigments and azo dyes, surfactants, fatty acid diester sulfates, higher alkanes, and synthetic fibers were found in over 25% of products. Antioxidants, solvents, fatty alcohol PEG ether compounds, fragrances, polysiloxanes, salts, and botanical extracts were also common ingredients occurring in over 10% of products.
