A1 - Horn, Wolfgang A1 - Jann, Oliver T1 - Emission of Biocides from Treated Materials N2 - Methods for the determination of biocide emissions from treated materials into water and air were developed and tested in order to support a comparative ecological assessment of biocidal products. Leaching tests, experiments with simulated rain, extraction cleaning of carpets and emission chamber tests were performed with a series of treated materials. The experiments focused on the effect of changes in the procedure as well as characteristics of the specimens and demonstrate the suitability of the proposed methods for biocides of different product types. It was demonstrated that emissions of biocides into water can be compared on the basis of leaching tests in which the emission kinetics of the active ingredients are recorded. However, the water volume per surface area and the timetable for water changes have to be defined in such tests. Functions of flux rates related to time can be well described for inorganic compounds, whereas modelling of the data is more complicated for organic substances. Emission chamber tests using 20-litre and 23-litre glass exsiccators, originally developed to study volatile organic compounds, were successfully adapted for the investigation of the emission of biocides from treated materials which are usually semi volatile organic compounds. However, test parameters and the method of analysis have to be adapted to the substances to be determined. Generally, it was found that the emission curves for the semi volatile organic compounds investigated differ from those of volatile organic compounds.

T1 - Emissions of material preservatives into the environment - realistic extimation of environmental risks through the improved characterisation of the leaching of biocides from treated materials used outdoors N2 - This report supports the implementation of European regulations on biocidal products for the product types 7, 9 and 10. Emission of active substances from material preservatives into environmental compartments can occur due precipitation. Risk characterisations have to be based on estimations of environmental concentrations of target substances leached from material preservatives. Harmonised test procedures are required to predict environmental impact due to leaching. Seventeen treated articles, mainly paints, but also a textile, sealing tapes and sealing masses were investigated by intermittent contact to water to prove suitability of the proposed laboratory test procedure. Parameters that affect leaching of active substances were examined. Further development of a semi-analytical model to describe laboratory leaching data revealed that the model can be improved if changes of the leachability of substances during the test are supposed and integrated. Six paints and a textile were exposed to weathering to compare results from laboratory and field experiments. Similarities between leaching processes in both test approaches were observed. Generally, emissions of active substances are considerably higher in laboratory tests than from vertically installed test specimens exposed to weathering. Competing processes that cause losses of active substances can occur in both tests, but to a higher degree in field experiments. In addition, the influence of meteorological parameters on leaching processes was investigated. Factors besides the amount of driving rain were identified that effect leaching processes by complex interaction. Relations between laboratory and field data were analysed, and the applicability of the semi-analytical model was tested for field data. Guidance documents for leaching tests under laboratory and field conditions were drafted and discussed with experts on EU Level workshop 3./4. July 2014, BAM, Berlin), and are included in this Report. N2 - Dieser Bericht unterstützt die Umsetzung europäischer Regelungen für Biozidprodukte der Produkttypen 7, 9 und 10. Die Freisetzung von Wirkstoffen aus Materialschutzmitteln in Umweltkompartimente kann bei Niederschlagsereignissen auftreten. Risikocharakterisierungen müssen auf Abschätzungen von Umweltkonzentrationen der betrachteten Stoffe basieren. Harmonisierte Testverfahren sind erforderlich, um eine Beeinflussung der Umwelt durch Auswaschung vorherzusagen. Siebzehn behandelte Waren, vor allem Farben, aber auch ein Textil, Dichtungsbänder und Dichtungsmassen wurden bei periodischem Wasserkontakt untersucht, um die Anwendbarkeit des vorgeschlagenen Laborverfahrens nachzuweisen. Faktoren, die Einfluss auf die Auswaschung von Wirkstoffen haben, wurden untersucht. Die Wieterentwicklung eines semianalytischen Modells zur Beschreibung von Auswaschdaten aus Laborversuchen ergab, dass das Modell verbessert werden kann, wenn eine Änderung der Auswaschbarkeit von Substanzen während des Versuchs angenommen und einbezogen wird. Sechs Farben und ein Textil wurden der Witterung ausgesetzt, um Ergebnisse aus Labor- und Freilandversuchen zu vergleichen. Zwischen Auswaschprozessen in beiden Versuchsansätzen wurden Ähnlichkeiten beobachtet. Im Allgemeinen sind die Emissionen von Wirkstoffen im Laborversuch deutlich höher als bei vertikal installierten bewitterten Prüfkörpern. Konkurrierende Prozesse, die Verluste an Wirkstoffen bewirken, können in beiden Testverfahren auftreten, sind aber im Freilandversuch stärker ausgeprägt. Außerdem wurde der Einfluss von meteorologischen Parametern auf Auswaschprozesse untersucht. Es wurden Faktoren identifiziert, die zusätzlich zur Schlagregenmenge durch komplexe Interaktion auf Auswaschprozesse wirken. Beziehungen zwischen Labor- und Frei-landdaten wurden analysiert und die Anwendbarkeit des semianalytischen Modells für Freilanddaten getestet. Leitfäden für Auswaschversuche unter Labor-bzw. Freilandbedingungen wurden entworfen, mit europäischen Experten diskutiert (Workshop 3./4. Juli 2014, BAM, Berlin) und sind Bestandteil dieses Berichts.

T1 - Biocide leaching during field experiments on treated articles N2 - Background: Biocidal products can be sources of active substances in surface waters caused by weathering of treated articles. Marketing and use of biocidal products can be limited according to the European Biocidal Products Regulation if unacceptable risks to the environment are expected. Leaching of active substances from treated articles was observed in field experiments to obtain information on leaching processes and investigate the suitability of a proposed test method. Results: Leaching under weathering conditions proceeds discontinuously and tends to decrease with duration of exposure. It mainly depends on the availability of water, but is also controlled by transport processes within the materials and stability of the observed substances. Runoff amount proved to be a suitable basis to compare results from different experiments. Concentrations of substances are higher in runoff collected from vertical surfaces compared to horizontal ones, whereas the leached amounts per surface area are higher from horizontal surfaces. Gaps in mass balances indicate that additional processes such as degradation and evaporation may be relevant to the fate of active substances in treated articles. Leached amounts of substances were considerably higher when the materials were exposed to intermittent water contact under laboratory conditions as compared to weathering of vertically exposed surfaces. Conclusions: Experiences from the field experiments were used to define parameters of a procedure that is now provided to fulfil requirements of the Biocidal Products Regulation. The experiments confirmed that the amount of water which is in contact with exposed surfaces is the crucial parameter determining leaching of substances.

T1 - Suitability of analytical methods to determine tebuconazole, propiconazole and permethrin in aged wood samples N2 - The suitability of common analytical methods for the determination of active substances from wood preservatives in aged wood samples was investigated during an interlaboratory study. Permethrin, propiconazole and tebuconazole were quantified in 1.5 and 8 year-old wood samples by gas chromatography and liquid chromatography. Generally, the applied Methods yielded reliable results for these samples. However, wood components can coelute with propiconazole and tebuconazole during liquid chromatography. Optimization of separation might be required if UV detection is applied.
