Primary Aromatic Amine
Primary aromatic amines (PAA) are a group of chemical compounds. They might be added to plastics during production.
In animal testing the PAAs have been shown to be related to cancer, and one form of PAA has been found in unacceptable high levels in kitchen utensils made of black nylon in China.
