High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis

Overview

Phosphonic acid, also known as phosphorous acid, is a phosphorus oxoacid with the chemical formula H₃PO₃. It is a key intermediate in the production of phosphonates, which are used in various agricultural and industrial applications.

Uses

Phosphonic acid is primarily used in the production of phosphonate-based herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers. It is also employed in the manufacturing of water treatment chemicals, flame retardants, and plasticizers.

Regulatory

Phosphonic acid and its derivatives are regulated under various national and international guidelines to ensure safe usage in agricultural and industrial applications. Compliance with these regulations is crucial for manufacturers and users to avoid legal and health-related issues.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of phosphonic acid residues in food and the environment is essential to ensure compliance with regulatory limits. Laboratories conducting such analyses require high-purity reference materials to achieve accurate and reliable results.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Exposure to phosphonic acid can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. Prolonged or high-level exposure may lead to more severe health effects, necessitating strict safety measures during handling and usage.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Phosphonic acid can have detrimental effects on aquatic and terrestrial wildlife if released into the environment. It is essential to manage its use and disposal carefully to minimize ecological harm.

Safety Measures

Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to handling guidelines, are necessary to mitigate the risks associated with phosphonic acid. Training and awareness programs for workers can further enhance safety.

Regulation

Various regulatory bodies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), have established guidelines for the safe use and disposal of phosphonic acid. Adhering to these regulations is essential for compliance and environmental protection.
