An overview of the uses of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)
Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 2020 Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are of concern because of their high persistence (or that of their degradation products) and their impacts on human and environmental health that are known or can be deduced from some well-studied PFAS. Currently, many different PFAS (on the order of several thousands) are used in a wide range of applications,
