Leaching of decabromodiphenyl ether and hexabromocyclododecane from fabrics under simulated landfill conditions

A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to examine the leaching of decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) from a mix of three fabrics. Consistent with previous reports that such leaching is governed by second order kinetics, concentrations in leachate were mar...
