ENVIRONMENTAL FATE
Dazomet's production and use as a rubber accelerator and as a vulcanizing agent may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. It's use as a fungicide will result in its direct release to the environment. If released to air, a vapor pressure of 1.72×10-5 mm Hg at 25 deg C indicates Dazomet will exist in both the vapor and particulate phases in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase Dazomet will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 1 hour. Particulate-phase Dazomet will be removed from the atmosphere by wet and dry deposition. Photolysis half lives of 20 days and 4.3 hours have been calculated from measured rate constants for Dazomet in soil and water, respectively. If released to soil, Dazomet is expected to have low mobility based upon a Koc of 676. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon a Henry's Law constant of 3.26×10-7 atm-cu m/mole. Dazomet is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure. Half-lives for Dazomet measured during soil field studies range from 1 day to 15 weeks. Dazomet is expected to undergo biodegradation in soil since this substance has been reported to degrade more rapidly in unsterilized soil than in sterilized soil. If released into water, Dazomet is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the measured Koc. Biodegradation is expected to be slow in water based on only 2.8% and 30% degradation after 20 days during screening tests that used sewage sludge innocula. Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's Henry's Law constant. Measured BCF values of 1.1-4.4 suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. The hydrolysis half-lives measured for Dazomet at pH 5, pH 7 and pH 9 were 68.5 days, 3.5 days, and 6.9 hours, respectively. Occupational exposure to Dazomet may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where Dazomet is produced or used. (SRC)
Usage: Originally prepared by M. Delépine (Bull. Soc. Chim. Fr., 1897, 15, 891), later introduced as a soil fumigant. Manufacturers: BASF
Application: Soil sterilant, applied prior to planting out crops, at 200-600 kg/ha. Controls soil fungi (Fusarium, Pythium, Rhizoctonia, Sclerotinia and Verticillium spp. and Colletotrichum coccodes), nematodes, germinating weed seeds, bacteria and soil insects. Also used as a slimicide in pulp and paper manufacture, and as a preservative in adhesives and glues. Phytotoxicity Highly phytotoxic to all green plants. Treated soils should not be planted until shown to be free of dazomet and its degradation products.
