As the French Senate passes a landmark bill targeting ultra-fast fashion platforms like Shein and Temu with eco-taxes, advertising bans, and influencer restrictions, Centexbel advances solutions that address the root of the problem: toxic substances, unsustainable production, and textile waste.
With this project, we aim to develop methods that are suitable for textile materials and can be tracked all the way to CO2 production. It also aims to provide a better understanding of the various parameters that influence biodegradability.
In this pre-normative study, we will develop analytical test methods for the determination of total organic fluorine (TOF) content, including the required extraction and purification method. The aim is to determine the TOF content using a combustion ion chromatography (CIC) technique.
