Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been identified as emerging contaminants,
which poses a great threat to human health and ecosystem. Pesticides, polycyclic aromatic …

Traditional brominated flame retardants (BFRs) negatively affect the environment and
human health, especially in the sensitive (developing) nervous system. Considering the …

In this study, we finished cotton fabrics with polyethylenimine (PEI)/melamine and phytic acid
(PA) by layer-by-layer assembly to enhance their flame retardant properties. Subsequently …

The organosilicon functionalized cyclotriphosphazene (N 3 P 3 [NH (CH 2) 3 Si (OC 2 H 5)
3] 6) was synthesized and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Fourier …

There is epidemiological evidence in humans that exposure to endocrine-disrupting
chemicals such as bisphenol A (BPA) is tied to abnormal neuroendocrine function with both …

Recent screening surveys have shown the presence of unknown halogenated compounds
in the marine environment at comparable levels to persistent organic pollutants (POPs) …

Per-and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are used extensively in a broad range of
industrial applications and consumer products. While a few legacy PFASs have been …

Novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) were comprehensively investigated in both
gaseous and particle phase samples collected using a high-volume active air sampler (HV …

Abstract Allyl 2, 4, 6-tribromophenyl ether (TBP-AE) is a flame retardant that is added to
plastics to improve their fire resistance. This kind of additive is hazardous to both human …

Concentrations of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and novel brominated flame
retardants (NBFRs) in the atmosphere of Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard, were investigated. Passive …
