SOIL ADSORPTION (METHOD DEVELOPMENT / PILOT STUDIES)
TEST SUBSTANCE_____________________________________________________
Identity:
N-ethylperfluorooctane sulfonamidoethanol; may also be referred to as N-EtFOSE Alcohol or FM-3422. (1-Octanesulfonamlde, N-ethyl1,1,2I2,3,3,4,4,5I5,6I6 I7I7 >8,8,8-heptadecafluoro-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-I CAS #1691-99-2)
Remarks: Material is an off-white, waxy solid of uncharacterized purity.
M E T H O D ______________________________________________________________
Method: The attached studies explore the use of organic solvents (1977
study) or Thin Layer Chromatography Plates (1978 study) for
determining the soil mobility of N-EtFOSE alcohol. These methods
were developed by 3M while looking for alternatives for studying
the adsorption/desorption properties of the test substance.
GLP (Y/N): No
Year (study performed): 1977 and 1978
Statistical methods:
None.
Temperature: Not noted in the reports.
Remarks field: Very little detail is available on these study methods.
RESULTS______________________________________________________________
The 1977 study using 20% and 5% alcohol as a portion of the solvent indicated between 64% and 98% of the N-EtFOSE alcohol was sorbed to the sandy loam soil. The 1979 study using TLC greenhouse soil plates indicated that N-EtFOSE alcohol did not move from the spot it was placed.
C O N C L U S IO N S ________________________________________________________
Both studies concluded that N-EtFOSE alcohol is likely to sorb to soil.
Submitter: 3M Company, Environmental Laboratory, P.O. Box 33331, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55133
DATA QUALITY_________________________________________________________
Reliability: Klimisch ranking 3. These studies lack sufficient explanation of the methodologies. Purity of the test substance is not characterized. The analytical methodology is also either missing or lacks validation.

Review of Technical Notebook No. 48277-30 Soil Thin Layer Chromatography I am not too sure how useful these plates are. Apparently both FC 143 and FM 3422 remained at the origin o f the thin layer plate where they were originally spotted. This implies no movement with the water used to develop the plate. Basically this tells me the method is insensitive, and doesn't yield much useful information. That is because FM 143 has a much lower soil sorption coefficient (K^ = 17) than FM 3422 (K^ = 15,000) and yet they behaved similarly in the soil thin layer chromatography plate. Mobility studies are probably best done in soil columns using micisible displacement experiments. These are more difficult to do experimentally but would yield more useful data that could be compared to other well studied compounds. The experimental approach is well established now and there are several laboratories doing this type of work, including my own. These experimetns augment batch equilibration (isotherm) experiments very nicely.
