利用气相色谱质谱联用法(GC-MS)分析我国变压器油样品中84种PCB的异构体并计算其毒性当量值(TEQ).结果表明,国产变压器油所含PCBs主要是以三氯联苯为主.其含量高达63%.其次是四氯和二氯代联苯,分别占24%和9%,其含氯量约为42.9%,与美国产Aroclor 1242(氯含量约为40%~42%)的含氯量极为相似.国产PCBs中,共平面PCBs含量仅占测定总量的1.6%,其中以CB-77的含量最高,对TEQ的贡献最大,占6种PCBs的72%,其次是CB-105和毒性最强的CB-126,分别占15%和8%;国产PCBs的TEQ值仅相当于美国产Aroclor 1242的15%.
Eighty-four PCB congeners in transformer oil produced in China were analyzed by gas chromatography mass spectrum (GC-MS) and the international toxicity equivalents (TEQ) indioxin-like PCBs found in Chinese transformer oil were also estimated. The major CB homologue in the total PCBs was CI3-CB (63%) followed by CI4-CB and C12-CB, accounted for 24% and 9% of ∑PCB, respectively. Low chlorinated biphenyls were the major components of the PCBs in transformer oil produced in China. PCBs in Chinese transformer oil contained 42.9% chlorine, similar to the Aroclor 1242 (contains 40%~42% chlorine). The concentrations of the 6 dioxin-like PCBs found in Chinese transformer oil were low, accounted for 1.6% of ∑PCB. The TEQ of the 6 dioxin-like PC-Bs was approximately 5.53μg/mL which was 15% of those found in Aroclor 1242. Among the 6 dioxin-like PCBs, CB-77 had the highest TEQ value, which was 72% of total TEQ, and followed by CB-105 (15%) and the most toxic congener CB-126 (8%).
