Physical & Chemical Properties

Physical description & handling notes

• Pcb-1232 is a viscous oily liquid. (NTP, 1992)
• Clear oil
• ... Colorless mobile oil
• Lower chlorinated Aroclors (1221, 1232, 1016, 1242, and 1248) are colorless mobile oils. Increasing chlorine content results in mixtures taking on the consistency of viscous liquids (Aroclor 1254) or sticky resins (Aroclors 1260 and 1262). Arclors 1268 and 1270 are white powders.
• 152-154 °C; Cleveland open cup
• Solubility in water varies because Aroclors are variable mixtures.

Documented Uses

• Summary of former end uses for various Aroclors:
• PCBs were used as coolants and lubricants in transformers, capacitors, and other electrical devices (such as fluorescent lights and refridgerators) produced before 1977. PCBs may contaminate the air and water near hazardous waste sites. In addition, PCBs bioaccumulate in the environment and may be found in fish, meat, and dairy products. (L4)
• PCBs /were/ ... prepared industrially by the chlorination of biphenyl with anhydrous chlorine in the presence of a catalyst such as iron filings or ferric chloride. The products are complex mixtures of chlorobiphenyls, whose degree of chlorination depends principally on the time of contact (12-36 hr) of the biphenyl with anhydrous chlorine. The crude product is blown with air, and a small amount of lime is added to remove hydrogen chloride and ferric chloride. The resulting chlorinated mixtures are batch-distilled
• Total USA sales in 1970 amounted to 33.2 million kg of PCBs and comprised ... 118 thousand kg Aroclor 1232.
• /Production/ was discontinued in October 1977
• The Aroclors are characterized by four digit numbers. The first two digits indicate that the mixture contains biphenyls (12), triphenyls (54) or both (25, 44); the last two digits give the weight percent of chlorine in the mixture (e.g., Aroclor 1242 contains biphenyls with approximately 42% chlorine). /Polychlorinated biphenyls/
