Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Exposure Profiles and Their Predictors in a Study of US Volunteer Firefighters

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 745-764, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Firefighters may experience occupational exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Volunteer firefighters make up 65% of the US fire service, but their serum PFAS profiles have not been well characterized. This study aims to (1) describe PFAS serum profiles among US volunteer firefighters from 9 states enrolled in ...

Solid Vapor Pressure and Enthalpy of Sublimation for Perfluorooctanoic Acid

, 2016
A modified gas saturation method was used to determine the solid vapor pressure of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) at ambient temperatures. Measurements were made over the temperature range from (25 to 45) °C. Pressures ranged from (5.2 to 40.7) Pa.

Thermal Degradation of PFAS in Different Scales: Measurement of Hydrogen Fluoride (HF)

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 9, Page 600-606, September 2026.
The communication article is about the challenges to balance a combustor in the case of fluorine when incinerating PFAS containing materials. Several analytical methods are compared: for continuous measurement, FTIR with TDLS. The detected fluorine species are further compared with results upon IC and pyrohydrolysis for discontinuous measurements in ...
