Title: Formaldehyde in your Environment: what, where, why and how - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: Modern society has become so technologically developed that it is hard to keep track of all the chemicals that we are exposed to during our daily lives. In some cases, products will present labeling and regulations that keep us from bringing toxic and harmful chemicals to our homes. However, in most cases, we have little knowledge or control over what kind of chemicals enter our houses and compromise the indoor air quality. One of these “sneakier” chemicals is formaldehyde, a compound commonly used for the production of resins and coatings. With an annual production of 30 million tons, it is extremely important to understand how this compound is found and reacts in our indoor environment. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
