Journal Article

Abstract  The dissociated and nondissociated species of any organic acid differ largely in their physicochemical behavior. The ratio of both species in aqueous systems is determined by the respective pKa value. For perfluorooctanoic acid recent fate-modeling studies have applied a pKa value of 2.8. This value likely is too high by 3 log units. Here, the correct value is estimated to be close to -0.5 based on analogy considerations and molecular modeling. Calculated pKa values for other highly fluorinated carboxylic acids are also presented.

Abstract  With increased use of highly fluorinated compounds has come an increased need for knowledge of the fundamental properties of these chemicals, such as vapor pressure, to determine how they will behave in the environment and how to remove them. A modified vapor saturation method was used to measure the ambient temperature vapor pressure of 3-(perfluorobutyl)propanol, (perfluorooctyl)ethylene, perfluorohexanoic acid, ethyl perfluorooctanoate, and perfluoro-3,6-dioxaheptanoic acid between (254.15 and 309.15) K. The freezing point for perfluorohexanoic acid was determined to be between (291.15 and 293.15) K The vapor pressures, which ranged from (0.87 to 978) Pa, were used to generate saturated vapor streams of the compound so that adsorption capacities on BPL activated carbon could be determined. Adsorption equilibrium data for three of the chemicals, measured at a feed concentration of 139 mu L.L-1 at high and low relative humidity, are presented and discussed.
