Abstract

Abstract

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of persistent organic pollutants, which are difficult to degrade, bioaccumulative, and have long-range transport properties. Therefore, China, America and the EU have taken a series of legal measures to regulate PFAS since 2023. Reference materials play an important role PFAS regulation and should be given sufficient attention. Currently, the PFAS reference materials system in China is deficient, because not only pure substances and standard solutions, but also isotopically labeled reference substances materials and matrix reference materials need to be further enriched and developed. In addition, this paper reviews the application of some PFAS reference materials in environmental analysis in the past five years, providing underutilized uses for reference materials for environmental analysis and monitoring work. Finally, some suggestions are provided for the construction of the PFAS reference materials system in China.
