Oxford Chemistry researchers have developed a method to destroy fluorine-containing PFAS (sometimes labeled 'forever ...

Forever chemicals, also known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances or PFAS, are so named because they have stubbornly strong carbon-fluorine chemical bonds, which make them persistent in the ...

These stable carbon–fluorine bonds have also been used with enormous success in the design of pharmacologically active molecules. The lengths of the C–H and C–F bonds are not too dissimilar ...

Phosphate salts were better than potassium hydroxide at degrading PTFE, and hydrated oxyanions had a detrimental effect on the displacement of fluoride atoms from carbon–fluorine bonds in the ...
