reported they found several bags of white powder in box that came from a company in China.<<<

Could this be melamine?

Thanks for the ping.

You're welcome Granny. Your question led to questions of my own regarding melamine.

Melamine - China

5) Dangerous goods class: not regulated

Melamine is mainly used for manufacturing melaminoformal dehyde resin, which is well water, heat and arc resistant and bright. It can also be used in decorative laminates, aminoplastics, adhesive agents, coatings and used as a paper reinforcing agent, textile auxiliaries, cement water-reducing agent and leather retaining agent.

Google for words "Melamine coating pharmaceutical"
