Name: Peroxyoctanoic acid

CAS No.: 33734-57-5

Scope: 1) Tools and equipment that come into direct contact with food or the surfaces of food packaging materials; 2) Tableware, drinkware.

Maximum level of use: /

Accepted on April 29, 2020. The Acceptance code. is卫食相申字(2020)第0006号.

Issued for public comments on June 29, 2021.

Approved on March 1, 2022 according to Notice No. 1, 2022.

Summary:

Through above analysis, it can be seen that compared with the previous two years (in the first half of 2020: 18 types and 12 types, respectively; in the first half of 2021: 23 types and 21 types, respectively), the number of accepted products (10) and the number of the products for public comment (5) in the first half of 2022 decreased significantly. On the other hand, the first new disinfectant raw material was approved in the first half of 2022, which is a new breakthrough in China.

The declaration period of most new food contact additives and resins are between one and one and a half years. One of the fastest product, 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid, polymer with 1,3-benzenedimethanamine and hexanedioic acid, took about eight months from its acceptance to final approval. Therefore, if the application dossiers are fully prepared, the safety are thoroughly studied, the registration period could be shortened. Enterprises who want to carry out the application are suggested to strengthen the feasibility analysis of product registration, and make adequate preparations for product technical review.
