Spatial-temporal Distribution and Ecological Risk Assessment of Quaternary Ammonium Compounds in Urban Estuarine Sediments [PDF]
, 2016 四季铵盐化合物（QACs）是一类主要的阳离子表面活性剂，广泛使用于衣物柔顺剂、消毒剂、个人护理品等产品中。QACs易吸附于沉积物上且不易降解，欧美国家于上世纪八十年代已经禁止部分难降解QACs的使用，而亚洲国家仍在大量使用QACs作为商业产品的主要有效成分。在城市化河口环境中关于QACs的分布特征和环境行为的研究还很少。本研究进一步优化了QACs在沉积物的痕量分析方法，选取珠江口这一典型城市化河口区域，研究其表层沉积物中QACs的分布特征和环境行为，并对比分析珠江口沉积物中其他污染物（207种 ...
