Conclusions: Many plastic products are mischaracterized as being EA free if extracted with only one solvent and not exposed to common-use stresses. However, we can identify existing compounds, or have developed, monomers, additives, or processing agents that have no detectable EA and have similar costs. Hence, our data suggest that EA-free ...

Dec 4, 2014 · While the release of chemicals from plastic resins or products has been well studied by a number of laboratories [20, 21], the leaching of chemicals with EA from many different unstressed or stressed plastic products has only recently been examined [16, 17, 34, 35]. BPA is by far the best studied of the estrogenic chemicals released from PC plastics (for reviews see 4,10,11,36].
