Notes:
Long-lived end-chain peroxy radicals have been detected during the thermo-oxidative degradation of PTFE. These radicals are associated with the fine particulate, which is the established cause of the ultra-high toxic potency of PTFE produced under the conditions employed. The particulate has been further characterized by a vareity of thermo-analytical methods. Fluid-flow modelling analysis has been used to simulate the recirculatory behaviour, characteristic of the NIST cup furnace toxicity test, which may effect the continuous regeneration of the toxicity.
