The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of Nylon 46 resins, which are manufactured by the condensation of 1,4-butanediamine and adipic acid, in membrane filters intended to contact beverages containing not more than 13 percent alcohol. This action responds to a petition filed by DSM Engineering Plastics.
