PFAS

Fluorine-free polymers are redefining liquid cooling hardware, delivering chemical stability and dielectric strength without relying on PFAS.

Study reveals how different microplastics, especially polyamides, strongly adsorb PFAS, shaping pollution risks and remediation strategies.

Study reveals hidden PFAS in long-wear cosmetics, exposing health and environmental risks and calling for more transparent labels.

PFAS contamination is now systemic across the UK. Engineers and regulators must decide between incremental control and full chemical elimination.

A new sodium-based method upcycles PTFE into fluorochemicals at room temperature, reducing PFAS risk and recovering valuable fluorine.

Plasticizer migration erodes performance and elevates compliance risk in PVC products. To counter this, surface engineering gives manufacturers direct, interface-level control.

Sports wearables often use triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs), and recent advances allow them to become PFAS-free.

Dr. Prithu Mukhopadhyay, Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, shares insights on microplastics and their impact.

Canada regulators excluded fluoropolymers from PFAS classification based on factors related to environmental behavior and exposure risks.

If PFAS are found nearly everywhere, what are the most effective methods for their destruction and disposal? Let’s explore the available techniques.
