Almanac Today is Wednesday, June 18, the 169th day of 1975 with 196 to follow. ' To the Editor: Thank you for your coverage Wednesday, > May 28, of B.F. Goodrich Chemical Company's announcement that we are continuing to supply polyvinyl chloride lor PVC) compounds to the manufacturers of plastic bottles. We believe our "Geon" PVC materials are strong candidates for packaging in both food grade and non food grade applications, just as they are for literally thousands of other uses from upholstery to floor covering to house siding and piping. We are concerned, though, that some readers may have been misled by the reference in your story to the ongoing investigation of the possible health buard of inhaling high levels of "raw " vinyl chloride gas over a long period of time -- in a manufacturing plant, fori Vinyl chloride is a monomer, wMcUftlmmi temperature, is a gas. This vinyl chloride icamdtvSwPVC restn which has the form of a fine powder. Ha resin is diluted by mixture with other materials to form a solid compound and our experience indicates that there is no similar possibility of hazard involved in the use of these compounds. As our news release said: "We have been alert. , .(toI proposed regulations. . .for PVC use in food - contact ap plications." according to Joseph J. Saiva, BFG Chemical product manager. "As a result. . .(we) supply bottle compounds containing less than 1 part per million of residual vinyl chloride monomer." "We have been unable to detect vinyl chloride in the packaged substances. . .(using analytical methods which will detect vinyl chloride levels as low as 59 parts per billion)." Saiva commented that the availability of PVC bottle compounds with less than 1 part per million of residual vinyl chloride monomer is "evidence of the dramatic progress BFG Chemical has made in further improving the safely of PVC materials for food packaging."
