CAS 32598-11-1: PCB 70
Description:PCB 70, or polychlorinated biphenyl 70, is a member of the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) family, which consists of synthetic organic chemicals composed of carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine atoms. Characterized by its complex structure, PCB 70 contains multiple chlorine atoms attached to biphenyl, resulting in a compound that is hydrophobic and lipophilic. This substance is known for its stability, resistance to degradation, and high boiling point, making it useful in various industrial applications, particularly as an insulating fluid in electrical equipment. However, PCBs, including PCB 70, are recognized for their environmental persistence and potential toxicity, leading to bioaccumulation in the food chain and adverse health effects in humans and wildlife. Regulatory measures have been implemented in many countries to limit the use and release of PCBs due to their classification as environmental pollutants. Consequently, PCB 70 is subject to strict handling and disposal regulations to mitigate its impact on health and the environment.
