[h=1]DISCOVERY OF TOXIC CHEMICAL IN TIRES SPURS SCIENTIFIC AND REGULATORY INTEREST[/h]

"[FONT=&quot]A chemical known as 6-PPD is often added to tires to extend their useful life. The additive works by reacting with ground-level ozone before the ozone can damage the tire’s rubber. The chemical reaction produces 6-PPD-quinone, a compound apparently never studied until now. The newly discovered compound is estimated to be more than 100 times as toxic as the parent compound, 6-PPD."[/FONT]

I would imagine every chemical man has ever made Is harmful to the environment in someway being it isn’t a natural occurring substance in nature. Frankly I don’t care anymore. We have much bigger fish to worry about than this.

 

[Davey Crockett]

It said "associated with tires" What other uses are there for 6-PPD ?

Google China toy suppliers and 6-PPD.

No more backing the boat trailer in the water. Boat ramps are going to need a roller system to put in or out,:::

Environmental tax on tires @ 14% coming right up.

China has been killing us slowly for many years.

There are times I wanna start a distributorship for these.




So I'd have more to spend on these:

The women or the beer?

Yes.

Those fuglies would require many beers.

I like lack of competition.

"you're..., right"

3/4 are taken, and you'd be assuming a lot to think you'd pass the muster on the 4th. In the end though, I have no idea what that's got to do with the price of tea in China.

Imagine if boat trailer tires start poisoning the crop of state record walleye cheeks swimming around the Missouri system. Dreams of side snagging the big one dashed by Chicoms.

That was the quote of the negative rep I received.

 

[Allen]

Weren't I, I sign both + and - reps I send out.

 

[Skeeter]

Reps are dumb.
