摘要：This scientific opinion of EFSA deals with the safety evaluation of titanium nitride, nanoparticles with the European Commission REF. No 93485 and FCM substance No 807, for use as additive in PET plastics. A request has been submitted for an extension of use in thermoformed PET sheets/films in addition to the use in PET bottles, evaluated by the EFSA in 2008. Under the intended conditions of use, no migration of the substance into food is expected and therefore no exposure of the consumer via food is expected. Based on this, the CEF Panel concluded that there is no safety concern for the consumer if the substance is used up to 20 mg/kg in only PET plastics intended for contact with all types of foodstuffs under conditions of any duration of time and at temperatures up to and including hot-fill.
