High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis

Overview

Tetra-n-butyltin, also known as tetrabutylstannane, is an organotin compound with the molecular formula Sn(CH2CH2CH2CH3)4. It appears as a colorless, lipophilic oil and is used as a precursor to various organotin compounds.

Uses

Tetra-n-butyltin is primarily used to produce tributyltin and dibutyltin compounds through a redistribution reaction with tin(IV) chloride. These resulting compounds serve as stabilizers for PVC and as biocides, fungicides, wood preservatives, and historically, marine anti-biofouling agents.

Regulatory

Due to its potential environmental and health impacts, the use and disposal of tetra-n-butyltin are regulated under various international guidelines to ensure safety and compliance.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of tetra-n-butyltin levels in environmental and food samples is essential to ensure adherence to regulatory limits and to safeguard public health.

Health Impact

Human toxicity

Tetra-n-butyltin can pose significant health risks if ingested, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. It is classified with hazard statements H301 (Toxic if swallowed), H312 (Harmful in contact with skin), H315 (Causes skin irritation), and H319 (Causes serious eye irritation).

Environmental Impact

Effects on wildlife

The compound is known to be highly toxic to aquatic life, with long-lasting effects. It is crucial to prevent its release into the environment to avoid detrimental impacts on wildlife.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and storage protocols are essential when working with tetra-n-butyltin. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow precautionary statements P273 (Avoid release to the environment), P280 (Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection), and others as specified in the safety data sheet (SDS).

Regulation

Tetra-n-butyltin is subject to strict regulatory controls to mitigate its potential health and environmental risks. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for all entities handling the compound.
