CAS 12674-11-2: Aroclor 1016

Description: Aroclor 1016 is a commercial mixture of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that was produced by Monsanto. It is characterized by its relatively low chlorine content compared to other Aroclor mixtures, typically containing around 42% chlorine by weight. This substance is a viscous, oily liquid that is colorless to light yellow in appearance. Aroclor 1016 is known for its thermal stability, electrical insulating properties, and resistance to chemical degradation, which made it widely used in electrical equipment, hydraulic fluids, and as a heat transfer medium. However, due to its environmental persistence and potential health risks, including carcinogenicity and endocrine disruption, PCBs like Aroclor 1016 have been banned or heavily regulated in many countries. Its environmental impact is significant, as it can bioaccumulate in the food chain, leading to harmful effects on wildlife and human health. Proper handling and disposal of Aroclor 1016 are crucial to mitigate its risks.
