Abstract

This study investigated how air, water, light, and salinity influence the release of three additives-phthalic acid esters (PAEs), organophosphate esters (OPEs), and organic ultraviolet absorbents (OUVAs)-from expanded polystyrene plastic (EPS). GC-MS/MS was used to quantify the concentrations of the three additives. The release kinetics and mechanisms under different conditions and the effects of various factors were analyzed. The release of PAEs and OPEs was more consistent with the first-order kinetics, while the release fitting of OUVAs was more in line with the second-order kinetics. Among all conditions, air exposure led to the highest release rates of PAEs (∑16PAEs: k = 0.868 ng/g·day) and OPEs (∑11OPEs: k = 0.927 ng/g·day). Compared to freshwater, seawater moderately inhibited EPS aging and additive release due to ion effects. Light significantly influenced both the rate and amount of additive release. Finally, the global release of plastic additives from EPS waste was estimated at 33.5k tons for PAEs, 646 tons for OPEs, and 420 tons for OUVAs.

空气、水、光和盐度对聚苯乙烯塑料中增塑剂、阻燃剂和紫外线吸收剂释放的影响。
本研究调查了空气、水、光和盐度如何影响膨胀聚苯乙烯塑料(EPS)中三种添加剂——邻苯二甲酸酯(PAEs)、有机磷酸酯(OPEs)和有机紫外线吸收剂(ouva)的释放。采用GC-MS/MS对三种添加剂的浓度进行定量分析。分析了不同条件下的释药动力学、释药机理及各因素的影响。PAEs和OPEs的释放更符合一级动力学,而OUVAs的释放更符合二级动力学。其中,空气暴露对PAEs(∑16PAEs: k = 0.868 ng/g·d)和OPEs(∑11OPEs: k = 0.927 ng/g·d)的释放率最高。与淡水相比,海水由于离子效应适度抑制了EPS的老化和添加剂的释放。光照对添加剂的释放速度和释放量均有显著影响。最后,EPS废物中塑料添加剂的全球排放量估计为PAEs 33.5万吨,OPEs 646吨,ouva 420吨。
