1. What contributes to human body burdens of halogenated flame retardants? : An experimental approach
Sammanfattning : Flame retardants (FRs) are chemicals added to a broad range of consumer products such as textiles, electrical and electronic equipment, furniture and building material to meet flammability requirements. Most of these chemicals are additives that can continuously leach out from the applied products during usage. LÄS MER
2. Flame-Retardant Cellulose Fibre/Fibril Based Materials via Layer-by-Layer Technique
Sammanfattning : According to an analysis conducted by the Swedish Chemicals Inspectorate in 2006, the approximate numbers of fire injuries per year in Sweden are 100 deaths, 700 major and 700 minor injuries.1 Observations also show that there has been an increase in the number of house fires during recent years.

3. Hydrolysis and photolysis of brominated flame retardants and some traditional persistent organic pollutants : Reactivity as a tool in fate assessement of chemicals
Sammanfattning : An organic compound that remains in the environment for a long time is regarded as a persistent organic pollutant (POP). Still, persistency is not a well defined property with a firm definition. Instead it is a conceptual property of chemicals for which DDT and PCB are typical representatives. LÄS MER
4. Persistent Organic Pollutants and the Environment : A Chemometric Approach to the Study of Halogenated Aromatics
Sammanfattning : Concern is growing about the environmental and health effects of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), many of which are halogenated aromatic compunds. The research reported in this thesis focuses on factors determining their behaviour and release into the environment. LÄS MER
