The rate constant for BaP decomposition induced by exposure to UV rays and rate constants for BaP1,6; 3,6; 6,12 diones formation were determined. Experiments were conducted by depositing the BaP on clean glass fiber-filter and on airborne paniculate collected by filter. The BaP half-life appears to be positively correlated with filter loading and airborne particulates protect BaP from UV degradation. Our results suggest that BaP1,6dione, BaP3,6dione, BaP6,12dione are not the main by-products of BaP photodegradation induced by UV.
