EPFRs (Environmental Persistent Free Radicals) are a new class of pollutant comprised of an aromatic organic molecule chemisorbed to a metal oxide surface, and their existence was first recognized by Prof. Barry Dellinger. They are ubiquitous; equally significant, they represent a previously unappreciated type of surface science species that has important chemical, biological, and public health ramifications.
