Title Thermal decomposition of dibutyltin difluoride and lung toxicity of pyrolysis products in rats and guinea pigs - Part 1
Original title Dégradation thermique du fluorure de dibutylétain et toxicité pulmonaire des produits de combustion chez le rat et le cobaye - 1ère partie [in French]
Bibliographic information 1985, Vol.5, No.1, p.15-23. 3 ref.
Abstract Part 1 of this article is an analysis of the thermolysis of dibutyltin fluoride between 200° and 600°C, with emphasis on its particular industrial occurrence (glass manufacturing). DBTF decomposes above its melting point into saturated hydrocarbons and olefins, accompanied by CO and CO2 during combustion as well as by volatile fluorine compounds. The solid residue is composed of various butyltins, of tin fluoride, of metallic tin and of tin oxides. Part 2 deals with toxicological information derived from animal experiments and with occupational pathology.
