Effect of the exposure to brominated flame retardants on hyperuricemia using interpretable machine learning algorithms based on the SHAP methodology.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are classified as important endocrine disruptors and persistent organic pollutants; nevertheless, there is no comprehensive investigation to evaluate the association between BFRs and hyperuricemia, and t...

Artificial Intelligence for the Discovery of Safe and Effective Flame Retardants.

Environmental science & technology
Organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs) are important chemical additives that are used in commercial products. However, owing to increasing health concerns, the discovery of new OPFRs has become imperative. Herein, we propose an explainable artific...

Deep learning-aided preparation and mechanism revaluation of waste wood lignocellulose-based flame-retardant composites.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Wood and its derivatives play a decisive role in traditional Chinese architecture. Waste wood as a major source of garbage in the construction industry represents a valuable source. The efficient recycling of waste wood has become an urgent technical...

Potential impact of organophosphate esters on thyroid eye disease based on machine learning and molecular docking.

The Science of the total environment
Organophosphate esters (OPEs) are widely used as flame retardants and plasticizers in daily commodities and building materials. Some OPEs, acting as agonists of the thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR), may contribute to the development of thy...

Highly Stretchable Flame-Retardant Skin for Soft Robotics with Hydrogel-Montmorillonite-Based Translucent Matrix.

Soft robotics
Flame-retardant coatings are crucial for intelligent systems operating in high-temperature (300-800°C) scenarios, which typically involve multi-joint discrete or continuous kinematic systems. These multi-segment motion generation systems call for con...

Review on the Use of Artificial Intelligence to Predict Fire Performance of Construction Materials and Their Flame Retardancy.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
The evaluation and interpretation of the behavior of construction materials under fire conditions have been complicated. Over the last few years, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a reliable method to tackle this engineering problem. This r...

Presence of diphenyl phosphate and aryl-phosphate flame retardants in indoor dust from different microenvironments in Spain and the Netherlands and estimation of human exposure.

Environment international
Phosphate flame retardants (PFRs) are ubiquitous chemicals in the indoor environment. Diphenyl phosphate (DPHP) is a major metabolite and a common biomarker of aryl-PFRs. Since it is used as a chemical additive and it is a common impurity of aryl-PFR...

Levels of Urinary Metabolites of Organophosphate Flame Retardants, TDCIPP, and TPHP, in Pregnant Women in Shanghai.

Journal of environmental and public health
Flame retardants are widely used in consumer products to reduce their flammability. Previously used flame retardants have been sequentially banned due to their environmental and human toxicity. Currently, tris(1,3-dichloropropyl) phosphate (TDCIPP) a...
