      Congratulations on quoting the summary and skipping over

      In conclusion, considering the safety of the direct application or contact by humans with siloxanes, the polycondensation reaction is preferred, due to lower contamination with low molecular weight siloxanes of cyclic structure. The literature indicates that they exhibit toxic effects, for example: cancerogenicity, modifications in proteins conformation, influence on the immune system, genotoxicity, skin irritations, intraocular pressure increase and teratogenicity

      Trust the maker of that silicone strap on amazon named qxzijhnnnggqqi qzzcni all you want to produce the kind of silicone or whatever other material.

          You’re right, nowhere does it mention toxicity, except the entire article.

          And you’re right, I am not sure there aren’t any heavy metals in my leather and fabric straps.

          And you’re also correct that the stainless straps that I do have which I bought from a jeweler I am additionally uncertain about their contents aside from the manufacturers certification.

          But weren’t you talking about silicone?
