Abstract
The use of artificial turf or grass on athletic and recreational fields has increased over the past 40 years because of its durability and low maintenance. However, recent reports about lead being present in the fibers and then released from the fibers, potentially exposing children playing on these artificial turf surfaces have raised concerns. Furthermore, there are many who are also questioning the use of turf fields designed not only with synthetic fibers but also with a crumb rubber “infill”.
