Nonionic Surfactant Effects on Adsorption and Degradation of 2,4‐D

Abstract: The effects of three nonionic surfactants on 2,4‐D (2,4‐dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) adsorption and degradation was determined for two soils in laboratory studies. The surfactants varied in water solubilities and hydrophilic‐lipophilic balance (HLB) values.Adsorption of 2,4‐D was significantly decreased in both soils by the least water‐soluble surfactant, X‐35. Degradation of 2,4‐D was also significantly delayed by X‐35 to various extents in both soils. However, extent of degradation was independent of treatmen… Show more

“…At low concentrations, nonionic surfactant increases the adsorption of atrazine, while cationic and anionic surfactants decrease the pesticide adsorption. Contrary to most other evidence ( Amonette and O'Connor, 1980 ; Bayer, 1967 ), low concentrations of surfactant were found to mobilize atrazine in sediments. This finding suggests that we need to notice that, even at low concentrations, surfactants are able to mobilize potentially toxic substances that have been adsorbed by sediments.…”

“…Flow-through systems were used by most workers cited in Table 5 (Wolf and Martin 1976;Wilson and Cheng 1978;Amonette and O'Connor 1980;McCall et al 1981). The advantages of flow-through systems are that they permit the running of soil experiments under precisely defined conditions, the use of different gaseous environments and operation using either positive or negative pressure (Guth 1980).…”
