“…Fig. 3 reveals that decomposition of Mancozeb occurs in three main steps with gaseous emissions of SO 2 , H 2 S and CS 2 at 200 • C. H 2 S is also observed until 500 • C. This thermal behaviour under nitrogen atmosphere differs from this previously obtained by Wang et al [21]. He mainly observed an additional mass loss at high temperature between 750 • C and 850 • C. The amount of emitted SO 2 is low and corresponds to 0.6% of the sulphur present in initial product.…”

“…First weight loss occurs between 25 • C and 200 • C. This weight loss of 26.5% is mainly associated with CS 2 and H 2 S emissions with few amounts of SO 2 and CO. CS 2 formation was already observed by Wang who suggested the emission of 1 mol of CS 2 per mole of Mancozeb and the formation of ETU during the first step of thermal decomposition of Mancozeb under nitrogen atmosphere [21]. The loss of 1 mol of CS 2 per mole of Mancozeb represents in theory 24 wt.% of the technical product which is consistent with the observed weight loss of 26.5%.…”

“…The active ingredient (Mancozeb-85 wt.%) is composed of zinc ethylene bis-dithiocarbamate (Zineb) and manganese ethylene bisdithiocarbamate (Maneb) as shown in Fig. 2 [21]. Mancozeb was used as received under powder form.…”

“…A fourstep decomposition was described but it was not clear whether the tested pesticide was pure or a commercial mixture. Decomposition under inert atmosphere leads to the formation of oxidized minerals whereas the pure materials have not oxygen atom [21]. Four steps mechanisms have been pointed out for both Maneb and Zineb.…”

Current findings may shed light on the reduction of mancozeb residue and its toxic degradation product during thermal processing of tomatoes and may also be valuable in awareness and prevention of potential risks from dietary exposure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
