The testchamber is ventilated at a constant air change rate under thestandard environmental conditions. For formaldehydedetermination, see Test Method D6007.1.2 This practice describes a test method that

For general guidance on

6、 conductingsmall environmental chamber tests, see Guide D5116.1.3 VOC concentrations in the environmental test chamberare determined by adsorption on an appropriate single adsor-bent tube or multi-adsorbent tube, followed by thermal desorp-tion and combined gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry (GC/MS

7、) or gas chromatograph/flame ionization detection (GC/FID). The air sampling procedure and the analytical methodrecommended in this practice are generally valid for theidentification and quantification of VOCs with saturation vaporpressure between 500 and 0.01 kPa at 25C, depending on theselection o

Theuser should have a thorough understanding of the limitations of eachadsorbent used.1.4 The emission factors determined using the above pro-cedure describe

These data can be useddirectly to compare the emission characteristics of differentproducts and to estimate the emission rates up to one monthafter the production. They shall not be used to predict theemission rates over

10、longer periods of time (that is, more thanone month) or under different environmental conditions.1.5 Emission data from chamber tests can be used forpredicting the impact of wood-based panels on the VOCconcentrations in buildings by using an appropriate indoor airquality model, which is beyond the s

The enclo-sure has controlled temperature and relative humidity.3.2

20、.2 loading ratio (m2/m3)the total exposed surface areaof each test specimen divided by the net air volume of theenvironmental test chamber.3.2.3 nominal time constant (tn)the time required to obtainone air change in the environmental test chamber, which isequal to the inverse of the air change rate.

21、3.2.4 pre-screening analysisa procedure for identifyingthe VOCs emitted from a test specimen. The results are used todetermine the appropriate GC/MS or GC/FID analyticalmethod for subsequent dynamic chamber tests.3.2.5 standard environmental test chamber conditiona testcondition of temperature at 23

The airflow condi

It can be us

28、test data on the emission factors ofVOCs from building materials. Standard test method andprocedure are a requirement for the comparison of emissionfactor data from different products.4.2 This practice describes a procedure for using a smallenvironmental test chamber to determine the emission factor

A pre-screening analysis procedure is also provided toidentify the VOCs emitted from the products, to determine theappropriate GC/MS or GC/FID analytical procedure, and toestimate required sampling volume for the subsequent envi-ronment

30、al chamber testing.4.3 Test results obtained using this practice provide a basisfor comparing the VOC emission characteristics of differentwood-based panel products. The emission data can be used toinform manufacturers of the VOC emissions from their prod-ucts. The data can also be used to identify

Thechamber criteria are as follows:5.2.1.1 Air-Tightness of the ChamberThe nominal airleakage rate of the chamber shall be less than 1 % of the airchange rate used for the emission test at 10 Pa. Air-tightness ismeasured as follows: (1) seal the

The rateis the nominal leakage rate of the chamber.5.2.1.2 Air Mixing in the ChamberAdequate air mixing inthe chamber shall be achieved to ensure that concentrationsmeasured at the chamber exhaust are representative of those inthe chamber. This may be determined by using the fol
