The release of mono‐and di‐butyltin species (MBT and DBT) in water after leaching of five different poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) materials was investigated under mild conditions over a period of one month in batch reactor systems. Results showed that inorganic tin, MBT and DBT compound were released from the material tested under experimental static leaching conditions. The total amount of inorganic tin and organotin compounds observed upon leaching varied considerably from one PVC material to another. Copyright © 1991 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
