“Our findings emphasize a way to reduce exposure to hazardous VOCs – by selecting products that are ‘green,’ especially those that are ‘green’ and ‘fragrance-free,’” she said. The study concluded that products labeled “green” emitted fewer VOCs, compared to conventional products –...
Plastic containers don’t just package up your leftovers; they contain Bisphenol A (BPA), an industrial chemical that has been used to make plastic since the 1950s.“What we’re finding in the research is that [BPA] can either act like a hormone or it changes the way hormones impact our...
that for a certain category of products, there is a maximum percentage by weight of VOCs they are allowed to contain. Each regulated category has a limit set based on feasibility and cost. An alternative approach is a reactivity-based VOC limitation. Reactivity is the ozone-forming ...
Common VOCs include ethanol, formaldehyde, benzene, toluene and xylene. VOCs are of concern to both indoor air quality and outdoor quality. Indoor VOCs are usually emitted from consumer products and building materials such as paints and carpets and may adversely impact the health of pe...
The oxylipin chemistry of marine algae and invertebrates, particularly those marine oxylipins that contain at least one carbocyclic ring, is examined. Bios... Gerwick,H William - 《Chemical Reviews》 被引量: 251发表: 1993年 Structure and biosynthesis of marine algal oxylipins Diverse marine life,...
conducted a risk assessment, which showed that 38.4% of the reference dose for toluene (20 μg/kg/day29) could be absorbed from pad use.21 VOCs were measured in 504 sanitary pads from Korea and 50 of 74 VOCs were detected, with concentrations ranging from a low of 1,1,2-...
The process of implementing the European solvents directive has resulted in numerous measures being taken to keep to a minimum emissions from products and materials that contain VOCs. These measures include the introduction of water-based paints and high solids paints and also the use of a wide ...
While prevalent, these products can contain chemicals that are not disclosed to the public through product labels or material safety data sheets (MSDSs). What are some of these chemicals and what limits their disclosure? This article investigates these questions, and brings new pieces of evidence ...
It is estimated that cigarettes contain about 5000 toxic substances such as nicotine, tar, carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) [64]. Due to the lower heating temperature of the tobacco in HTP systems compared...
It is to be noted that the phrase “binder”, “bio-based binder”, “binder composition”, and “binder formulation” may be used interchangeably herein. Bio-Based Binder Compositions The present invention relates to environmentally friendly, aqueous polyester binder compositions that contain at ...
