Here, the levels of 16 known harmful ingredients were firstly analyzed in 167 school running tracks. In all samples, the recognized toxic solvents and additives, such as the benzene series, soluble mercury, 3,3′-dichloro-4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (MOCA) and toluene diiso… Show more

“…In light of the circumstance, research was conducted by a group of specialists. The results showed that there is the emission of xylene, toluene diisocyanate, and unpredictably very low concentrations of sulfur dioxide which can have a profound effect on long-term exposure, especially in the shape of impairments like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (Wu et al 2019).…”
