Table 1.
Log passive sampler-water partition coefficient values (Ksampler; L/kg) from the present study and the literature for selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs) for polyethylene (PE), polyoxymethylene (POM), and solid phase microextraction (SPME) fibers with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coating. For the present study, mean and one standard deviation are presented. All Ksampler values are reported in Supplemental Data, Table S3.
