4、rd, this guide describes options, butdoes not recommend specific courses of action. This guide isnot a standard test method and must not be construed as such.1.4 The use of small environmental test chambers to char-acterize the emissions of VOCs from indoor materials andproducts is still evolving.

For several indoor materials,more detailedASTM standards for emissions testing have nowbeen developed. Where more detailed ASTM standard prac-tices or methods exist, they supers

6、ede this guide and should beused in its place. Until the interested parties agree uponstandard testing protocols, differences in approach will occur.This guide will continue to provide assistance by describingequipment and techniques suitable for determining organicemissions from indoor materials. S

7、pecific examples are pro-vided to illustrate existing approaches; these examples are notintended to inhibit alternative approaches or techniques thatwill produce equivalent or superior results.1.5 Small chambers have obvious limitations. Normally,only samples of larger materials (for example, carpet

Small chambers are alsoinappropriate for testing combustion devices (for example,kerosene heaters) or activities (for example, use of aerosolspray products). For some products, small chamber test

9、ing mayprovide only a portion of the emission profile of interest. Forexample, the rate of emissions from the application of highsolvent materials (for example, paints and waxes) by means ofbrushing, spraying, rolling, etc. are generally higher than therate during the drying process. Small chamber t

10、esting cannotbe used to evaluate the application phase of the coatingprocess. Large (or full-scale) chambers may be more appropri-ate for many of these applications. For guidance on full-scalechamber testing of emissions from indoor materials refer toPractice D6670.1.6 This guide does not provide sp

11、ecific directions for theselection of sampling media or for the analysis of VOCs. Thisinformation is provided in Practice D6196.1.7 This guide does not provide specific directions fordetermining emissions of formaldehyde from composite woodproducts, since chamber testing methods for such emissions a

12、rewell developed and widely used. For more information refer toTest Methods E1333 and D6007. It is possible, however, thatthe guide can be used to support alternative testing methods.1.8 This guide is not applicable to the determination ofemissions of semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) frommate

13、rials/products largely due to adsorption of these com-pounds on materials commonly used for construction ofchambers suitable for VOC emissions testing. Alternate proce-dures are required for SVOCs. For example, it may be possibleto screen materials for emissions of SVOCs using micro-scalechambers op

15、. Guide D6485provides an example of the assessment of acute and irritanteffects of VOC emissions for a given material. Specification of“target” organic species of concern is similarly beyond thescope of this guide. As guideline levels for specific indoorcontaminants develop, so too will emission tes

The internal volume of small-scale cham-bers usually ranges from a few litres to a few cubic metres.Micro-scale chambers are typically less than one litre involume and further differ from small-scale chambers in that theentire airflow rate at the chamber exhaust is sampled (seePr

40、actice D7706).4. Significance and Use4.1 ObjectivesThe use of small chambers to evaluateVOC emissions from indoor materials has several objectives:4.1.1 Develop techniques for screening of products forVOCemissions;4.1.2 Determine the effect of environmental variables (thatis, temperature, humidity,

41、air speed, and air change rate) onemission rates;4.1.3 Rank various products and product types with respectto their emissions profiles (for example, emission factors,specific organic compounds emitted);4.1.4 Provide compound-specific data on various organicsources to guide field studies and assist i

42、n evaluating indoor airquality in buildings;4.1.5 Provide emissions data for the development and veri-fication of models used to predict indoor concentrations oforganic compounds; and4.1.6 Develop data useful to stakeholders and other inter-ested parties for assessing product emissions and developin

43、gcontrol options or improved products.4.2 Mass Transfer ConsiderationsSmall chamber evalua-tion of emissions from indoor materials requires considerationof the relevant mass transfer processes. Three fundamentalprocesses control the rate of emissions of organic vapors fromindoor materials; evaporati

44、ve mass transfer from the surface ofthe material to the overlying air, desorption of adsorbedcompounds, and diffusion within the material.4.2.1 The evaporative mass transfer of a given VOC fromthe surface of the material to the overlying air can be expressedas:ER 5 AkmVPs2 VPa!MWRT (1)where:ER = emi

45、ssion rate, mg/h,A = source area, m2,km= mass transfer coefficient, m/h,VPs= vapor pressure at the surface of the material, Pa,VPa= vapor pressure in the air above the surface, Pa,MW = molecular weight, mg/mol,R = gas constant, 8.314 J/mol-K or Pa m3/mol-K, andT = temperature, K.Thus, the emission r

46、ate is proportional to the difference invapor pressure between the surface and the overlying air. Sincethe vapor pressure is directly related to the concentration, theemission rate is proportional to the difference in concentrationbetween the surface and the overlying air. The mass transfercoefficie

47、nt is a function of the diffusion coefficient (in air) forthe specific compound of interest and the level of turbulence inthe bulk flow.4.2.2 The desorption rate of compounds adsorbed on mate-rials can be determined by the retention time (or averageresidence time) of an adsorbed molecule: 5 oe2Q/RT(

48、2)where: = retention time, s,o= constant with a typical value from 1012to 1015s, andQ = molar enthalpy change for adsorption (or adsorptionenergy), J/mol.The larger the retention time, the slower the rate of desorp-tion.4.2.3 The diffusion mass transfer within the material is afunction of the diffus

49、ion coefficient (or diffusivity) of thespecific compound. The diffusion coefficient of a given com-pound within a given material is a function of the compoundsphysical and chemical properties (for example, molecularweight, size, and polarity), temperature, and the structure of thematerial within which the diffusion is occurring.The diffusivityof an individual compound in a mixture is also affected by thecomposition of the mixture.4.2.4 Variables Affecting Mass TransferWhile a detaileddiscussion of mass transfer theory is beyond the scope of thisguide, it is necess
