Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of sulfosuccinic acid 4-ester with polyethylene glycol nonylphenyl ether, disodium salt (alcohol moiety produced by the condensation of 1 mole of nonylphenol and an average of 9 to 10 moles of ethylene oxide) for use as an emulsifier in the manufacture of polyvinyl acetate and vinyl-acrylate copolymers intended for use in coatings for paper and paperboard that will contact food. This action responds to a petition filed by American Cyanamid Co.
