Abstract:Partitioning from water to nonaqueous phases is an important process that controls the behavior of contaminants in the environment and biota. However, for ionic chemicals including many perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), environmentally relevant partition coefficients cannot be predicted using the octanol/water partition coefficient, which is commonly used as a hydrophobicity indicator for neutral compounds. As an alternative, this study measured C 18 liquid chromatography retention times of… Show more
