Leaching of biocides from construction products is currently a research topic receiving attention from the European regulation authorities (CEN/TC 351).
In this paper we have focused on the leaching behaviour of CBA (copper-borateazoles) treated Pinus sylvestris.
To better define the chemistry of the leaching phenomena, two leaching tests (a static equilibrium test and a dynamic surface leaching test) have been carried out on untreated and treated wood, which offered more information about how the leaching of biocides interferes with other substances released from the wood structure.
Eluates, in liquid and lyophilised form, were further analyzed by analytical methods.
Organic (tebuconazole) and inorganic (Cu, B) biocides were quantified and several organic compounds have been identified (e.g.
carboxylic acids, phenols, amines, etc.).
Also, the total amount of phenols and of carboxylic groups was determined.
Results on inorganic compounds are in accordance with previous studies made on treated wood.
Furthermore, organic carbon, tebuconazole and other organic compounds' behaviour was extensively investigated.
This study aims to complete existing leaching data and to help developing a chemical model for several biocides in wood, including Cu, B and tebuconazole.
Die evangelische Friedenskirche in Schweidnitz (Polen) ist ein besonderes Zeugnis des deutsch-polnischen und damit europäischen Kulturerbes. Deshalb wurde sie auch 2001 einstimmig vom UNESCO-Komitee in die Liste des Kultur- und Naturerbes der Welt aufgenommen. Sie stellt ein einmaliges Denkmal des hoch entwickelten schlesischen Fachwerk- und Holzbaues aus dem 17. Jahrhundert dar. Im Rahmen einer interdisziplinären Zusammenarbeit zwischen Fachleuten aus Deutschland und Polen erfolgte die fachgerechte Restaurierung von 39 Fensterverglasungen und Rahmen mit dem Ziel, eine Abdichtung des Kirchenraumes gegen eine zeitweilig zu feuchte und mit Schadstoffen angereicherte Außenluft zu erreichen. Die Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung in Berlin führte Untersuchungen zu den klimatischen Bedingungen im Kirchentraum durch, um für die Kunstschätze nachhaltig verträgliche Bedingungen zu sichern. In der Friedenkirche war, wie auch in vielen anderen Bauwerken, in den 70-er und 80-er Jahren des 20. Jh. das Holzschutzmittel Xylamon verwendet worden. Neben der Gefahr für die sensiblen Materialien der Kunstwerke ist durch Holzschutzmittel auch ein Einfluss auf die Gesundheit von im Kirchenraum befindlichen Personen nicht auszuschließen. Mit Hilfe unterschiedlicher Untersuchungsmethoden konnten Emissionen aus Holzschutzmitteln und ihre Verbreitung im Kircheninneren nachgewiesen werden.
Durch eine Kombination von naturwissenschaftlichen Untersuchungsmethoden war es möglich, mit Holzschutzmittel belastete Materialien in einer zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe gehörenden Kirche, der Friedenskirche in Swidnica (Polen), zu identifizieren. Ein screening mit einer mobilen Röntgenfluoreszenzanalyse (RFA) lieferte erste Hinweise auf die Anwendung dieser Mittel an Holzkonstruktionen. Untersuchungen von Holzproben in einer Mikrokammer (µ-CTE) bei unterschiedlichen Temperaturen mit anschließender Gaschromatographie und massenspektrometrischer Detektion (GC/MS/MS) ermöglichten einen qualitativen und quantitativen Nachweis von Pentachlorphenol (PCP) und Lindan. Weiterhin erfolgte eine aktive Luftprobenahme auf Tenaxröhrchen mit anschließender Thermodesorption und GC/MS-Analyse. In Staubproben aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen der Kirche wurden Wirkstoffe aus Holzschutzmitteln nachgewiesen. Untersuchungen im Rasterelektronenmikroskop mit EDX lieferten Hinweise auf schadstoffbelastete Partikel im Staub.

Biocide leaching was investigated for acrylate and vinyl acetate based coatings containing biocides either as liquid formulations or microcapsules. Laboratory and field tests indicate similar relations of results on carbendazim, diuron, terbutryn and OIT from different coatings in laboratory and field experiments. Emissions were higher in EN 16105 laboratory tests than from vertically installed test specimens exposed to weathering, and slower for microencapsulated biocides. Competing processes that cause losses of active substances can occur in both tests, but to a higher degree in field experiments. Emission curves related to runoff water were similar in repeated field experiments. Relative humidity, temperature and global radiation were identified as meteorological factors that affect leaching by complex interaction besides the amount of driving rain.

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.
