Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic soil biotransformation of 6:2 fluorotelomer iodide.

TL;DR: Were 6:2 FTI to be released from its manufacture and undergo soil microbial biotransformation, it could form PFPeA,PFHpA, PFHxA, 5:3 acid, and 4:3 Acid in the environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating Environmental Hazard and Risks from Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs): Outcome of a SETAC Focused Topic Meeting

TL;DR: The objectives of the Focused Topic Meeting and workshop were to harness the expertise of attendees to discuss and formulate a roadmap to prioritize the study of specific PFAS with the goal of developing a risk assessment approach that considers mechanistic (including computational) data for extrapolating exposure and data across different species/scenarios and compounds within environmental exposure pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the reproductive and developmental toxicity of a fluoroalkylethanol mixture.

TL;DR: The objective of these studies was to evaluate the reproductive and developmental toxicity of a commercial fluoroalkylethanol mixture, which is an intermediate in the production of fluorotelomers and reduced maternal body weight parameters, increased perineal fur staining, and increased fetal skeletal alterations were observed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the reproductive and developmental toxicity of 6:2 fluorotelomer alcohol in rats.

TL;DR: 6:2 FTOH is not a selective reproductive or developmental toxicant at dosages that induce clear maternal/parental toxicity and would not be classified for reproductive/developmental toxicity under the United Nations' Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals.

Carboxylic acid-containing polymer/resole resin stain-resists

TL;DR: In this paper, a composition which provides polyamide substrates with resistance to staining by acid dyes comprising: (a) carboxylic acid-containing stain-resist polymers selected from: (i) methacrylic acid polymers, or (ii) hydrolyzed copolymers of maleic anhydride with ethylenically unsaturated aromatics, alpha-olefins, alkyl vinyl ethers or alkyyl allyl ethers, or(iii) mixtures of resole condensates prepared by reacting bis(
