Biodegradability Analysis of Dioctyltin Dimercaptoacetate

Dioctyltin dimercaptoacetate (DBT-DOTG), as an organotin compound, is widely used in the field of plastic additives, especially in polyethylene. Used as heat stabilizer in vinyl chloride (PVC) products. However, its biodegradability analysis is crucial to assess its environmental impact and safety, as organotin compounds generally exhibit low biodegradability, which may pose a threat to ecosystems.…
