BIODEGRADATION (BOD/COD)
TEST SUBSTANCE
Identity:A mixturecontainingperfluorooctanesulfonatweh,ich may also be referredtoas PFOS, FC-95, or as a component ofFX-3103. (1Octanesulfonicacid)(CAS # 2795-39-3).
Remarks: The 3M productionlotnumber was not noted.The testsample isFX-3103, 3%. Currentinformationindicatesitisa mixtureof 0.96% PFOS, 20% diethyleneglycolbutylether,50.56% water,15% ethyleneglycol4,.32% sodium octylsulfate6,.0% polyoxyethylenemonooctylphenylether,2.5% propane sultonefoamer,0.5% sodium nitrate0,.06% sodium laurylsulfate, and 0.1% benzotdazole.
The following summary applies to a mixture with incompletely characterized concentrations of impurities. Data may not accurately reflectthe biodegradabilityof the tluorochemical component of the test sample.
