PFAS could be replaced with safe graphene oxide solution  

PFAS could be replaced with safe graphene oxide solution  

Northwestern University researchers have developed a new water- and oil-resistant material that could become a safe, viable replacement for harmful plastics and toxic per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in food packaging.
