The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of octadecanoic acid, reaction products with 2-[(2-aminoethyl)amino]ethanol and urea, and the acetate salts thereof, which may be emulsified with ethoxylated tallow alkyl amines, for use in the manufacture of paper and paperboard intended for use in contact with dry food. This action is in response to a petition filed by Sequa Chemicals, Inc.
