Possible Application
used as an emulsifier for the emulsion
polymerization of fluoropolymers such as
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE, or Teflon),
polyvinylidene fluoride, and fluoroelastomers
PFOA may be found in PVDF plastic up to
1% w/w of the plastic
Pentadecafluorooctanoic acid
(PFOA)
206-397-9
335-67-1
used as a plasticiser in PVC and other
plastic polymer and many cosmetics and

4-Nonylphenol, branched
and linear, ethoxylated
Widely used as surfactants like industrial
cleaners and emulsifier in paints and
lacquers, adhesives and pesticides; used in
the production of synthetics, stabilisers, as
well as phenolic and epoxide-resins;
Nonylphenol ethoxylates are found in
concentrations up to 10% w/w in specialist
coatings based on acrylic esters and
specialist paints based on polyvinyl acetates
(PVA). If the coating is applied to a very thin
light structure, for example aluminium foils,
then this could result in > 0.1% w/w of
nonylphenol ethoxylates in the article.
[substances with a linear
and/or branched alkyl chain
with a carbon number of 9
covalently bound in position 4
to phenol, ethoxylated
covering UVCB- and well-
defined substances,
polymers and homologues,
which include any of the
individual isomers and/or
combinations thereof]
