and are in Sunlight Open your windows [That ‘new car smell’ can increase drivers’ lifetime cancer risk] [What are the three highest-risk VOCs? Formaldehyde has many uses, primarily in the production of other chemicals and resins. It is also found in adhesives, disinfectants and some cosmetics such as nail hardening products Benzene is used as a starting material in the production of a wide range of chemicals required by industrial manufacturing processes. End products include plastics, foams, dyes, detergents, solvents and insecticides. It is also found in cigarette smoke. Acetaldehyde is used in water treatment products and also found in paints, adhesives and air fresheners Source: Gov.uk/European Chemicals Agency] [It may sound like scaremongering of the highest order, but that much sought after ‘new car smell’ could increase drivers’ risk of cancer – a risk that grows with higher temperatures. A study by Chinese and US researchers has shown the levels of three carcinogenic volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by the interior of a new car, known as off-gassing, far exceed recommended levels, contributing to incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) and ‘indicating a high health risk to drivers’. The team observed the levels of 20 common VOCs in a new mid-sized hybrid SUV parked outside for 12 days during sunny, cloudy and rainy weather.] https://metro.co.uk/2023/04/13/that-...risk-18604962/ Study finds formaldehyde, a class one carcinogen that can cause cancer, exceeded the acceptable threshold when monitored inside a car https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...e-risk-cancer/ Was on Headliners they used the Telegraph Paper, the Only One Hour Newspaper review Every Night GBnewsHD. 11PM Last edited by arista; 14-04-2023 at 05:27 AM. |
