Reductions in Serum Lipids with a 4-year Decline in Serum Perfluorooctanoic Acid and Perfluorooctanesulfonic Acid
Epidemiology (Cambridge Mass.), 2013Co-Authors: Nicola Fitz-simon, Kyle Steenland, Tony Fletcher, Michael I. Luster, Antonia M. Calafat, Kayoko Kato, Ben ArmstrongAbstract:Background:Several epidemiological cross-sectional studies have found positive associations between serum concentrations of lipids and Perfluorooctanoic Acid (PFOA, or C8). A longitudinal study should be less susceptible to biases from uncontrolled confounding or reverse causality.Methods:We investi

fabrication of superhydrophobic surfaces with Perfluorooctanoic Acid modified tio2 polystyrene nanocomposites coating
Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 2009Co-Authors: Zhaozhu Zhang, Weimin LiuAbstract:Abstract A superhydrophobic Perfluorooctanoic Acid modified TiO 2 /polystyrene nanocomposites coating was fabricated by a facile spraying process. As modified by Perfluorooctanoic Acid, the TiO 2 /polystyrene nanocomposites changed from hydrophilic (86°) to hydrophobic (166°). The wettability can be adjusted by controlling the drying temperature and the content of modified TiO 2 nanoparticles. When the weight ratio of Perfluorooctanoic Acid modified TiO 2 to polystyrene was 1:1, the maximum of contact angle was obtained at 180 °C. As the content of Perfluorooctanoic Acid modified TiO 2 increased, the maximum of contact angle was achieved at 100 °C.
