|  | Some Jayflex plasticizers are used for food processing
and packaging, as well as sealants – applications that require a regulatory
approval, from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the U.S., for
example.
For regulated applications, Jayflex plasticizers offer:
- Good clarity for transparent film
- Resistance to extraction
- Low odor/taste
- Low migration
Jayflex plasticizers have a very low degree of acute
toxicity and irritancy. In all cases, oral LD50s are greater than 5g/kg
bodyweight.Jayflex phthalates have an Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) of
5mg/m³ (as specified by the ExxonMobil OEL committee).
Jayflex
plasticizers will biodegrade, have a low degree of toxicity to the aquatic
environment, and will not bioconcentrate. A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
is available for each Jayflex plasticizer. Please contact the nearest ExxonMobil
Chemical Sales Office to request a copy.
FDA
regulations for some Jayflex plasticizers are shown in the table below.
Additional information on regulatory requirements can be obtained from the
