Lehvoss has developed a PFAS-free variant of its Luvocom thermoplastic tribological material for electrostatic powder coating.

PPG's new ENVIROLUXE™ Plus powder coatings eliminate PTFE and incorporate up to 18% recycled plastic (rPET), reducing carbon footprint by up to 30% compared to traditional durable powders without sacrificing performance.

Stantec has been selected by the City of Vancouver, Washington, to design a PFAS treatment system for Water Station 4. The facility will treat up to 12.2 million gallons of water per day and marks one of the region’s largest PFAS treatment projects.

The grant will support the installation of Point-of-Entry Treatment systems in private wells across West Plains to address PFAS-contaminated groundwater, using $7.5 million in state funding to target areas with the highest pollution levels.

The invention relates to a fluorine-free flame-retardant PC resin composition, and a preparation method and application thereof. The resin composition comprises, by weight, 85-92 parts of PC resin, 5-8 parts of phosphazene flame retardant, 2-4 parts of flexibilizer, 2-4 parts of fumed silica, 1-3 parts of multi-wall Carbon Nano Tube (CNT),

The application provides a fluorine-free oil-proof agent, a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of textile assistants. The fluorine-free oil-proof agent is prepared by reacting fluorine-free oleophobic monomers with hydrophobic silica aerogel particles, wherein the fluorine-free oleophobic monomers have umbrella-shaped liquid characteristics, and the hydrophobic silica aerogel particles have a three-dimensional porous network structure. The fluorine-free oil-proofing agent can endow fabrics with good oil-proofing effect.

This water repellant composition includes a non-fluorinated polymer (?) containing constituent units derived from a (meth)acrylic acid ester monomer (A1) represented by general formula (A-1) and constituent units derived from a compound (A2) represented by general formula (A-2), and a silicone resin (?). [In formula (A-1), R1 represents hydrogen or a methyl group, and R2 represents

The invention relates to a fluorine-free flame-retardant PC/ABS resin composition, a preparation method and application thereof, wherein the resin composition comprises, by weight, 70-90 parts of PC resin, 5-10 parts of ABS resin, 8-12 parts of phosphazene flame retardant, 2-5 parts of toughening ag

To address the challenge of the durability of eco-friendly flame retardants coated on fabric surfaces, a coating (SFR) on cotton fabrics combining superhydrophobic, environmentally-benign, durable flame-retardant properties was prepared through sequential dip-coating of ammonium phytate (AP) and N-dodecyltrimethoxysilane-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (D-MSNs), assisted by polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) adhesive.

In this work, researchers present a novel fluorine-free amphiphobic fabric, featuring a hierarchical surface architecture comprising silica gel particles and a specially designed polymer coating.

Here researchers disclose a protocol that converts multiple classes of PFAS, including the fluoroplastics polytetrafluoroethylene and polyvinylidene fluoride, into high-value fluorochemicals. To achieve this, PFASs were reacted with potassium phosphate salts under solvent-free mechanochemical conditions, a mineralization process enabling fluorine recovery as KF and K2PO3F for fluorination chemistry.

PFAS are widely used in textiles for their hydrophobic properties but pose environmental risks due to their persistence and toxicity. This review explores natural-based hydrophobic coatings, such as waxes, fatty acids, and natural polymers, assessing their potential as sustainable PFAS alternatives.
