12.Ecological information

12.1 Toxicity

  • Toxicity to fish: LC50; Species: Pimephales promelas (Fathead minnow) age 30 days, length 20.1 mm, weight 0.103 g; Conditions: freshwater, flow through, 24.3°C, pH 7.30, hardness 51.1 mg/L CaCO3, alkalinity 45.8 mg/L CaCO3, dissolved oxygen 5.8 mg/L; Concentration: 21 ug/L for 96 hr (95% confidence interval: 19-23 ug/L) /99% purity
  • Toxicity to daphnia and other aquatic invertebrates: EC50; Species: Daphnia magna (Water Flea) age <24 hr neonate; Conditions: freshwater, static, 21°C, pH 7.6; Concentration: 0.000487 mM for 24 hr; Effect: intoxication, immobilization
  • Toxicity to algae: no data available
  • Toxicity to microorganisms: no data available

12.2 Persistence and degradability

AEROBIC: Hexachlorophene, present at 100 mg/L, reached 0% of its theoretical BOD in 4 weeks using an activated sludge inoculum at 30 mg/L in the Japanese MITI test(1). Radio-labeled C14-hexachlorophene was not biodegraded in surface water from the Skidaway River, GA(2). In sediments from Skidaway River, radio-labeled C14-hexachlorophene was degraded with a half-life of 290 days(2).

12.3 Bioaccumulative potential

The BCF of hexachlorophene in carp (Cyprinus carpio), exposed for 8 weeks to 2 and 0.2 ug/L were 87-148 and 82-153, respectively(1). BCFs for hexachlorophene in mosquito fish (Gambusia affinis) and snails (Physa sp) are 278 and 970, respectively(2). According to a classification scheme(3), these BCFs suggest the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate to high(SRC).

12.4 Mobility in soil

The Koc of hexachlorophene has been reported as 91,000(1). According to a classification scheme(2), this Koc value suggests that hexachlorophene is expected to be immobile in soil. The pKa of hexachlorophene is 4.95(3), indicating that this compound will partially exist in anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(4). A study of the mobility in Hagerstown silty clay loam soil TLC (thin layer chormatography) plates using 10 soil fungi and an alga (range of Rf values, 0.01-0.04, avg 0.01) indicated very little movement on the soil TLC plates(5). A monitoring study identified hexachlorophene in humic acid fractions of two sediment samples taken at least eight years after the FDA ban on the over-the-counter sale of cosmetics and drugs containing more than 0.1% hexachlorophene(6). These data indicate that hexachlorophene was strongly associated with organic matter which may have been as a result of covalent binding of the ionizable compound(5-6).

12.5 Other adverse effects

no data available

13.Disposal considerations

13.1 Disposal methods

Product

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.

Contaminated packaging

Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
