Aluminum dialkyl phosphinates (ADPs) are a class of promising phosphorus-containing flame retardants, but their environmental fate is not well understood. Sorption and transport behaviors of ADPs, and their hydrolysates dialkyl phosphinic acids (DPAs) were studied by batch and column experiments. ADPs are less mobile in soil columns with more than half (>52.6%) of ADPs retained in the soil and residues in the topmost 2-cm layer account for more than 57% of total residues. Dissolution and dispersion of fine grain ADPs were responsible for the transport of ADPs. Sorption DPAs (logKₒc) was significantly related to the lipophilicity of DPAs (logD) (p < 0.05). Soil pH and clay content were the dominant factors governing the sorption and transport of DPAs in soils, indicating the importance of electrostatic interactions. The retardation factors (R) of DPAs derived from leaching experiments were pH-dependent with larger R values in the acidic soil (pH = 4.0) where anionic and neutral species of DPAs coexisted. Both physical and chemical non-equilibrium convection-dispersion equations (CDE) yield appropriate modeling for DPAs transport. In most cases, R values estimated from column tests differed from those derived from the batch experiments, which might be attributed to non-equilibrium sorption processes in dynamic conditions.
