Single- and Multi-Element Quantification and Characterization of TiO2 Nanoparticles Released From Outdoor Stains and Paints

Abstract: With growing applications of TiO 2 nanoparticles (NPs) in outdoor surface coatings, notably in paints and stains, their release into the environment is inevitable. While NP release has potential ecotoxicological risk, reliable risk assessments are often complicated by the near absence of analytical data on release rates under natural weathering scenarios, and the lack of a chemical characterization of the NPs following their release. This work measured NPs released from painted and stained surfaces and charact… Show more

“…The instrument used a segmented reaction cell in which 4-6 cm 3 min −1 of He and ca. Four cm 3 min −1 of H 2 gas was introduced in order to eliminate argon and nitrogen-based interferences for elements such as Si, K, Ca, Cr and Fe [37]. Time of flight mass spectra (23-238 amu) were acquired with a dwell time of 76.5 µs [37].…”

“…Four cm 3 min −1 of H 2 gas was introduced in order to eliminate argon and nitrogen-based interferences for elements such as Si, K, Ca, Cr and Fe [37]. Time of flight mass spectra (23-238 amu) were acquired with a dwell time of 76.5 µs [37]. Total sample acquisition time was 32 s. In some experiments, the instrument was coupled to an Aridus II desolvator (Teledyne Cetac Technologies, Omaha, NE, USA) (Argon was used as the membrane sweep gas (5-6 L min −1 ) and as the nebulizer gas (0.9-1.0 L min −1 )).…”

“…The mixture of both forms was chosen to mimic natural conditions where NPs will originate from diverse sources. 3,56,57 There are indeed numerous applications that do not require a specific phase of TiO 2 (e.g. painting, photocatalytic applications…).…”

“…TiO 2 -NPs occur commonly as two different crystalline structures, anatase and rutile; a mix of both phases of titanium was chosen in this experiment to take into account the diversity of TiO 2 -NPs arriving on coasts from different sources, 3,56,57 for instance: coatings, paints, sunscreens. Toxicity of TiO 2 -NPs is twofold: a direct physical effect on cells, associating with and shading them, interrupting energy transduction along the membrane and limiting cells access to light.…”
