Abstract Studies were made with pentachlorophenol (PCP) to determine the effects of temperature, air flow, humidity, carrier solvents, and wood coating systems on the vaporization properties of PCP. Temperature had the greatest effect on PCP vaporization from treated wood. Methylene chloride was associated with the highest air concentrations of PCP. The cosolvent WC-144 was most effective in reducing PCP vaporization, and a bituminous coating and an epoxy paint were the most effective coatings for reducing PCP vaporization from treated wood.
