The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of <greek-a>- (dinonylphenyl)-<greek-oh>-hydroxy-poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), containing 7 to 24 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of dinonylphenol, as a component of defoaming agents used in styrene-butadiene coatings for paper and paperboard intended to contact food. This action is in response to a food additive petition filed by PPG Industries, Inc.
