PFOA and Long-Chain PFAS Compliance Testing
topic
PFOA compliance testing specifically quantifies perfluorooctanoic acid and its ammonium salt, and precursor compounds that transform to PFOA under environmental conditions, against the REACH Annex XVII limit of 1 microgram per kilogram in textile articles; PFHxA C6 and other short-chain PFAS that serve as PFOA replacements are simultaneously quantified to verify substitution compliance.
Role
Provides the specific regulatory compliance data required for the EU REACH Annex XVII PFOA restriction applied to textile articles from July 2020, including the challenging analytical requirement to quantify PFOA and its precursors at the extremely low 1 microgram per kilogram threshold in complex textile matrices.
