Plasticiser loss in heritage collections: its prevalence, cause, effect, and methods for analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors draw on the work of conservation science, materials degradation, and indoor air quality/emissions studies, to review the current understanding of plasticiser loss and the influence of the material's intrinsic properties, and environmental factors on migration rates.

Biodegradable Polymers for the Environment
Richard A. Gross,Bhanu Kalra +1 more
TL;DR: The need to create alternative biodegradable water-soluble polymers for down-the-drain products such as detergents and cosmetics has taken on increasing importance, forcing industry to compete head-to-head on a cost-performance basis with existing familiar products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flame retardants in indoor air at an electronics recycling plant and at other work environments.
TL;DR: Air samples from a plant engaged in recycling electronics goods, a factory assembling printed circuit boards, a computer repair facility, offices equipped with computers, and outdoor air have been analyzed with respect to their content of brominated hydrocarbon and phosphate ester flame retardants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of Cellulose Acetate-Based Materials: A Review
TL;DR: A review of degradation mechanisms and possible approaches to diminish the environmental persistence of these materials, will clarify the current and potential degradation rates of these products after disposal as discussed by the authors, but no review has been compiled which includes biological, chemical, and photo chemical degradation mechanisms.
