Forever chemicals PFAS – How far can we go for elimination
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have made headlines around the world over the past few years. PFASs are groups of chemicals that bear water and oil repellence properties and are used to provide specific functional properties on a number of consumer products. However, recent studies from scientists showed that PFASs can place adverse effects on our wellbeing as well as the environment, which led to many regulations controlling these chemicals in support of global sustainability and environmental concerns. These regulations place great challenges on suppliers and manufactures to find alternatives so that functional properties on products are not compromised. In this webinar, we will provide you an overview of PFAS and discuss concerns for PFAS among different industry stakeholders.
