環境中動態TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 40000(SRC), from a measured water solubility(2), indicates that p-terphenyl will be immobile in soil(SRC). Based on limited pure culture data, p-terphenyl may be resistant to biodegradation(SRC). Two bacterial strains of Alcaligenes and Acinetobacter, enriched on biphenyl or 4-chlorobiphenyl, were unable to utilize p-terphenyl as a sole carbon source during a four week period(3). Volatilization of p-terphenyl may be important from moist soil surfaces(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.4X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), from a recommended regression equation(4), but should not be significant from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based on a estimated vapor pressure of 3.4X10-7 mm Hg(5,SRC).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a recommended classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc of 40000(SRC), determined from a measured water solubility(2), indicates that p-terphenyl should adsorb to suspended solids and sediment in the water(SRC). Based on limited pure culture data, p-Terphenyl may be resistant to biodegradation(SRC). Two bacterial strains of Alcaligenes and Acinetobacter, enriched on biphenyl or 4-chlorobiphenyl, were unable to utilize p-terphenyl as a sole carbon source during a four week period(3). p-Terphenyl should volatilize from water surfaces based on an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3.4X10-5 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), developed using a fragment constant estimation method(4). Estimated half-lives for a model river and model lake are 2 and 18 days, respectively(1,SRC). An estimated BCF value of 5900(1,SRC), determined from a measured water solubility(2), suggests that p-terphenyl will bioconcentrate in aquatic organisms(SRC), according to a recommended classification scheme(5).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), p-terphenyl, which has an estimated vapor pressure of 3.4X10-7 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase p-terphenyl is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be about 2 days(3,SRC). Particulate-phase p-terphenyl may be physically removed from the air by dry deposition(SRC).

Signs and Symptomsirritation eyes, skin, mucous membranethermal skin burnsheadachesore throatIn Animals: liver, kidney damage
Effluent ConcentrationsA sample of Ontario flyash collected from a municipal incinerator in Toronto, Canada contained p-terphenyl at unreported concentrations(1).
Soil Adsorption/MobilityThe Koc of p-terphenyl is estimated as approximately 40000(SRC), using an experimental water solubility of 0.0179 mg/l(1) and a regression-derived equation(2,SRC). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that p-terphenyl will be immobile in soil(SRC).
TSCA Test Submissionsp-Terphenyl (CAS # 92-94-4) was evaluated for its effects on peripheral blood and bone marrows. The test substance was administered in the diet of dogs (1/sex/group) at a dosage level of 25, 50, or 500 mg/kg/day for 5-weeks. One or more changes in the bone marrow involving red and white cell series (megaloblastoid erythropoiesis, increased numbers of eosinophils, increased numbers of reticulum cells) were present after Day-3 in all animals at 500 mg/kg/day and 1 animal at 50 mg/kg/day. Hematological changes were still present after the 3-week recovery period.p-Terphenyl (CAS # 92-94-4) was evaluated for its effects on peripheral blood and bone marrows. The test substance was administered in the diet of dogs (1/sex/group) at a dosage level of 0, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, or 15.0 mg/kg/day for 8-weeks. By the 8th-week, changes in the megaloblastoid erythropoiesis and increased eosinophil production were present in all animals and dose groups.p-Terphenyl (CAS # 92-94-4) was evaluated for subchronic dietary toxicity. The test substance was administered in the diets of rats (16/sex/group) at a dosage level of 0, 1000, 2000, or 20,000 ppm for 90-days. Minor adverse hematological effects were noted at 2000 and 20,000 ppm. At 20,000 ppm, males had a pronounced change of haemostatic functions with reduced kaolincephalin and prothrombin indices. Females at this dose level had a slight decrease in haemoglobin values. The no-effect level was determined to be 1000 ppm in the diet. There was no treatment-related effects in regards to biochemistry and histopathology.
Natural Pollution SourcesTerphenyl, unspecified isomers, occurs naturally in petroleum oil(1).
Atmospheric ConcentrationsURBAN/SUBURBAN: Ambient air samples collected at Port Stanley (Lake Erie, Ontario, Canada), Point Petre (Lake Ontario, Ontario, Canada), and Dorset, Ontario, Canada between January and November 1990 contained p-terphenyl at average concentrations of 0.6, 0, and 0 ng/cu m, respectively(1).
Human Toxicity Excerpts... Concentrations of Santowax R vapor or condensate (a mixture of terphenyls containing 12% o-, 60% m-, and 28% p-terphenyl) in a reactor room under normal operating conditions ranged from 0.1 to 10 mg/cu m when the coolant was heated at 220 to 230 degree C. Concentrations above 10 mg/cu m (concentrations not specified) were associated with ocular and respiratory tract irritation in exposed workers. /Santowax R/
Artificial Pollution SourcesTerphenyl mixtures containing p-terphenyl are produced and used industrially as heat storage and transfer agents, as textile dye carriers, and as intermediates in the production of nonspreading lubricants(1) may result in p-terphenyl's release to the environment through various waste streams(SRC). From 1960-1970, technical grade terphenyls were also used as coolants for nuclear reactors, whereas contemporary use has been in solar-heating systems(1).
Environmental BiodegradationBased on pure culture data, p-terphenyl is expected to be resistant to aerobic biodegradation(SRC). Two bacterial strains of Alcaligenes and Acinetobacter, enriched on biphenyl or 4-chlorobiphenyl, were unable to utilize p-terphenyl as a sole carbon source during a four week period(1).

用途

用途

オルト、メタ、パラの3種類の異性体が存在する。市販グレードのテルフェニルは、通常3つの異性体の混合物である。この混合物は、かつて熱貯蔵や熱伝導剤として用いられていたポリ塩化テルフェニルの製造の原料となる。 p-テルフェニルはもっとも一般的な異性体で、レーザー色素やサンスクリーン剤の原料として用いられる。

説明

p-Terphenyl(PTP) is an aromatic hydrocarbon isomer, formed by three benzene rings in ortho position. Pure terphenyl is a white crystalline solid, insoluble in water. Though polychlorinated terphenyls were used as heat storage and transfer agents, p-terphenyl is currently under investigation as a material to be used in opto-electronic devices, such as organic LED devices (OLEDs) and currently used in laser dyes and sunscreen lotions. In particle physics it has been used as a wavelength shifter, exploiting its sensitivity to VUV radiation, to read out scintillation light from liquid Xenon. Pterphenyl has also been used as a doping component for liquid scintillators.So far, p-terphenyl has not been used as main component of particle detectors due to its short Light Attenuation Length. As a matter of fact this property could be exploited when detecting low-energy charged particles in small areas, providing both energy and position measurement.

使用

p-Terphenyl is a specialty material, and may be used in ionized radiation detectors, nonpolar laser dye, and single molecule optical probe of scanning near-field microscopy.
