SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
In a notice published in the Federal Register of October 29, 1993 (58 FR 58172), FDA announced that a food additive petition (FAP 3B4400) had been filed by Henkel Corporation, 300 Brookside Ave., Ambler, PA 19002-3498. The petition proposed to amend the food additive regulations to provide for the safe use of pentaerythritol mixed esters of C 16-18 fatty acids as a dispersant for titanium dioxide in polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene intended for contact with food. Henkel Corporation has since changed its name to Cognis Corporation. Cognis Corporation has now withdrawn the petition without prejudice to a future filing (21 CFR 171.7).
