Pentachlorophenol is a
manufactured chemical strongly used as a pesticide and industrially used as a
wood preservative for railroad ties, and utility poles. Characteristically,
pure pentachlorophenol exists as colorless crystal in nature whereas impure
pentachlorophenol is dark gray in color and exists in form of dust, beads and
flakes.
The chemical was widely used
as a pesticide but since 1984 its availability is subject to a number of tests
and is very less available to general public. It is still existent and is used
in industrial applications certainly as a wood preservative. It can be found in
air, water and soil and enters the environment through evaporation from treated
wood surfaces, disposal at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites and by treating
wood spills. It can be also broken down by sunlight, microorganisms and other
chemicals in a certain span of days to months.
Again, pentachlorophenol being
hazardous in nature is responsible to cause cancer in workers engaged in high
levels of technical grade. Constant exposure to pentachlorophenol in such cases
increases liver, adrenal glands and causes nasal tumors. Thus,
pentachlorophenol being a hazardous chemical and primarily responsible to cause
cancers in humans is likely to decline in much of commercial use. Though, it is
banned in most countries the practice of using pentachlorophenol as a wood
preservative still prevails, thus, the pentachlorophenol market is likely to
grow at a lower CAGR in future
