Hydrolysis and adsorption of the sulfonylurea herbicides rimsulfuron and primisulfuron were investigated under laboratory conditions. Degradation in aqueous solutions was determined between pH 3 and 8 and between 5 and 35 C. Rimsulfuron degraded faster than primisulfuron. Half-lives at different temperatures at pH 4 ranged from 0.16 to 5.8 d for rimsulfuron and from 0.47 to 16.1 d for primisulfuron. Primisulfuron hydrolysis at 30 C decreased with increasing pH, but rimsulfuron decreased up to pH 7, then increased, suggesting rapid degradation in alkaline conditions. Adsorption, measured in six Colorado soils, was complete within 2 h in all soils. Adsorption isotherms were determined by batch equilibration of 75 to 600 microgram L-1. Rimsulfuron was adsorbed in amounts 3.7 to 7 times higher than primisulfuron, with adsorption distribution coefficient (Kd) ranging from 0.1 to 1.18 for primisulfuron and from 0.71 to 5.1 for rimsulfuron. Adsorption of both herbicides was slightly correlated with soil clay content, and primisulfuron adsorption was also correlated with organic matter content.
