CAPTAN
    克菌丹
Introduction: Captan is a nonsystemic phthalimide fungicide used to control diseases of many fruit, ornamental, and vegetable crops. It improves fruit finish by giving it a healthy, bright colored appearance. It is used in agricultural production as well as by the home gardener. A major use of captan is in apple production.

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Captan's production may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams; its use as a fungicide will result in its direct release to the environment. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 9.0×10-8 mm Hg at 25 deg C indicates captan will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases. Vapor-phase captan will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals and ozone; the half-lives for these reactions in air are estimated to be 4.4 and 4.1 hours, respectively. Particulate-phase captan will be removed from the atmosphere by wet and dry deposition. Captan does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, captan is expected to have very high to moderate mobility based upon Koc values of 33-600. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon a Henry's Law constant of 7.0×10-9 atm-cu m/mole. Captan is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure. In field studies using sterile and unsterile soil at pH 7.2 and 50% moisture content, captan, applied to a sandy loam, clay loam and sandy loam soil amended with peat had a reported half-life of 12-20, 5.5-5.9 and 7.7-8.9 days, respectively. If released into water, captan is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the Koc range. Captan is hydrolyzed with half-lives of 18.8 hrs, 4.9 hrs and 8.3 min measured in water at pH values of 5, 7 and 9, respectively. Based on the rapid hydrolysis of captan, biodegradation in water is not expected to be an important fate process. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's Henry's Law constant. A reported BCF of 126 in bluegill sunfish suggests bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate. Occupational exposure to captan may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where captan is produced or used. Monitoring data indicate that the general population may be exposed to captan primarily via ingestion of fruit containing residual pesticide. Limited monitoring data indicate exposure may occur via dermal contact with consumer products containing captan, inhalation of ambient air, and ingestion of contaminated drinking water. (SRC)
