Abstract
Several physicochemical properties including water solubility, vapor pressure, and hydrolysis of bistrifluron benzoylphenylurea insecticide developed in Korea, were measured based on OECD guidelines for testing of chemicals and Toxic Substances Control Act Test guidelines. Water solubility was low showing 30 ${\mu}g/l$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and in hydrolysis study, half-life at $20^{\circ}C$ was 10.9 days (pH 9.0) and was stable in pH 7.0 solution. At $40^{\circ}C$ hydrolysis rate was 20.6 days (pH 7.0) and 1.5 days (pH 9.0). The vapor pressure of bistrifluron was not obtained from vapor pressure experiments at $25^{\circ}C$ because the bistrifluron was not detected. Therefore, the vapor pressure was determined to be ${\leq}\;2.05{\times}10^{-8}$ torr which was calculated to apply the detection limit (50 ng) of bistrifluron. And this value is suggests it would not give environmental contamination by volatilization.
국내에서 합성, 개발된 유기인계 살충제인 bistrifluron의 물리화학적 특성으로 수용성, 가수분해, 증기압을 미국 EPA와 OECD 방법에 준하여 측정하였다. 수용성은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 30 ppb로 낮았고 가수분해 반감기는 $20^{\circ}C$에서 10.9일(pH 9.0) 이었고 pH 7.0 조건에서는 전혀 분해가 안되었으며, $40^{\circ}C$에서는 20.6일(pH 7.0), 1.5일(pH 9.0) 이었다. 상온$(25^{\circ}C)$에서의 증기압 측정은 시험기간 중 bistrifluron이 검출되지 않아 bistrifluron의 검출한계(50 ng)를 적용하여 계산한 ${\leq}2.05{\times}10^{-8}$ torr를 bistrifluron의 증기압으로 결정하였다. 이 수치를 보면 bistrifluron은 휘발에 의하여 환경에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 낮을 것으로 판단된다.
