美國(guó)FDA表示，由于3M公司是兩個(gè)長(zhǎng)鏈的全氟化合物在美國(guó)國(guó)內(nèi)和全球的唯一生廠商，已經(jīng)不再將全氟化合物用于食品防油包裝材料，因此FDA也決定禁止兩個(gè)長(zhǎng)鏈的全氟化合物用于食品防油包裝材料。

 

    部分原文報(bào)道如下：

 

    In response to a petition filed on behalf of the 3M Corporation, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is amending a food additive regulation to no longer authorize the use of two long-chain perfluorinated compounds （PFCs） used in “grease-proof” food packaging. 3M's petition provided evidence that the use of these compounds, for which 3M stated it was the sole domestic and international manufacturer, has been completely and permanently abandoned by industry in the U.S. market. FDA's action in amending this regulation is not based on a safety evaluation; rather, it is based on the abandonment of these uses. Although manufacturers have voluntarily stopped using these products, FDA's action means that any food additive use of the PFCs covered by the regulations is no longer authorized.
