23、pounds emitted from indoor materials/products.3.2.3.1 DiscussionThe emission cell is placed against thesurface of the test specimen, such that the surface of the testspecimen itself becomes part of the emission cell. This is thefundamental difference between emission cells and emissionchambers. The

24、air inlet of the emission cell is designed suchthat the flow of air is directed over the surface of the testspecimen.3.2.3.2 DiscussionAn example emission cell is describedin Appendix X2.3.2.4 product loading factorthe ratio of the test specimenarea and the emission cell volume.4. Summary of Practic

25、e4.1 Emission cells are suitable for relatively-homogeneousindoor materials/products, which present a planar surface to theemission cell.NOTE 4Small emissions chambers are similarly limited with respectto sample inhomogeneity. To overcome this issue, with either emissioncells or small emission chamb

26、ers, multiple measurements should be madefrom different parts of the same sample in order to obtain an averageemission measurement.4.2 Indoor materials/products which have a planar surface(wood-based panel products, dried paints or coatings, flooringproducts, textiles, foams, polymer sheeting, dried

27、 adhesivelayers, and so forth) or which can be made to present a planarsurface to the emission cell (polymer beads, carpet, moldcultures in petri dishes, and so forth) are placed under theemission cell such that the test specimen itself forms one faceof the emission cell. Pure, humidified air is pas

28、sed into the cellthrough a baffle around the perimeter such that it passes overthe whole surface of the test specimen. The temperature andhumidity are closely controlled. As air passes over the testspecimen, vapor-phase organics emitted from the surface areswept away from the test specimen in the fl

29、ow of air. Theair/vapor exit (exhaust) point is usually located centrally,immediately above the test specimen surface, to avoid unsweptvolumes and sink effects (see 7.6 and Appendix X2). Theexhaust air is fully mixed such that air sampled at the exit pointis representative of the air in the cell. Ap

30、proximately 80 % ofthe flow of air into the cell is pumped onto two sample tubes.The excess air is allowed to exhaust through an overflow ventto ensure that a slight positive pressure is maintained inside thecell to prevent ingress of background air.4.3 The air flow rate is set such that the air vel

31、ocity over thesurface of the test specimen has no effect on the area specificemission rate (see 6.4). The emissions tests are carried out atfixed times after preparation of the test specimen (for example,after 2 hours, 24 hours, 72 hours, 10 days, 28 days, 56 days, or182 days (26 weeks). Throughout

32、the entire test period, testpieces shall either be kept under the emission cell under theflow of pure, humidified air, or stored in a clean, well-ventilated environment, under controlled conditions of tem-perature and humidity, with no risk of contamination fromother samples or other emission source

33、s.NOTE 5The air flow rate at the surface of the test specimen isparticularly critical for wet indoor materials/products where the primaryemission process is evaporation (external diffusion). In these cases, whileit will remain possible to compare emission data from wet samplescollected using similar

34、 emission cells under identical conditions, theD7143052non-uniformity and relative slowness of the air velocity at the surface ofthe test specimen, will make it difficult to compare emission cell data withthat obtained using an emission chamber (see Appendix X4).NOTE 6Similar limitations make it dif

35、ficult to compare emission datafrom two different small chambers or from the same chamber underdifferent operating conditions, if that data is obtained during the drying/curing stages of a wet product.4.4 The sample tubes used for collecting VOCs are analyzedby thermal desorption: gas chromatography

36、 (GC); usually withmass spectrometry (MS) and flame ionization detection (FID)to identify and quantify the target volatile organic compoundsas described in Practice D 6196, ISO 16000-6 or ISO 16017-1.The measured masses of volatile organic compounds retainedby the sorbent tubes are then used to dete

37、rmine the area specificemission rates of the material or product. Alternative samplingand analytical techniques are used for formaldehyde (and forother carbonyls) as described in Test Method D 5197.5. Significance and Use5.1 Indoor materials/products are products or materials usedfor construction wo

38、rks or in the indoor environment. The areaspecific emission rates of volatile organic compounds from anindoor material/product may be used to estimate the expectedcontribution of emissions from that material/product to theatmosphere of a given indoor environment.5.2 Emission data may also be used to

39、 compare and catego-rize different indoor materials/products of similar function.5.3 Emission cell testing of area specific emissions mayalternatively be used for studying secondary interactions (forexample, sink effects (absorption and re-emission of volatileorganics by the indoor material/product)

40、 or emissions gener-ated by chemical degradation of the indoor material/productcaused by specific atmospheric agents such as water, ozone orNOx).6. Principles6.1 General Principles6.1.1 Area specific emission rates at a given lapsed time (t)are calculated from the masses of target volatile organicco

41、mpounds collected on the sample tubes, the flow of airpumped through each sample tube, the total flow of air enteringthe emission cell, the duration of the test and the exposedsurface area of the test specimen. Area specific emission ratesat a given lapsed time (t) can also be expressed as a functio

42、n ofthe emission cell air concentrations for each VOC and the areaspecific air flow rate, q.6.1.2 Air velocity at the surface of the test specimen(Appendix X3 and Appendix X4) is a critical parameter for theanalysis of wet-applied indoor materials/products during thedrying/curing stage when the domi

43、nant emission mechanism isevaporation (external diffusion) (see 6.4).6.2 Using Emission Data to Estimate Contribution to Atmo-spheric VOC Concentration Indoors6.2.1 Provided the area specific air flow rate over the surfaceof the test specimen is similar to that found in the builtenvironment, and pro

44、vided the surface of the indoor material/product is sufficiently homogeneous to ensure that the area ofthe test specimen exposed in the emission cell is representativeof the whole; area specific emission rates determined by thesetests can be used to estimate the likely contribution toatmospheric VOC

45、 concentrations from that indoor material/product in real use, at time (t) after installation/application(assuming similar nominal conditions of temperature andhumidity).6.3 Intercomparison of Emission Data6.3.1 Provided the test conditions are duplicated, area spe-cific emission rate data generated

46、 from these tests may be usedfor comparison with area specific emission rate data producedfor the same or similar products by other laboratories usingsimilar emission cells.NOTE 7The principles described in 6.2 and 6.3 are true for allapplicable product types, whatever the dominant process of emissi

47、on.6.4 Effect of the Emission Mechanism on Test Data6.4.1 Provided the dominant emission mechanism is (inter-nal) diffusion, not evaporation (external diffusion), area spe-cific emission rate data will be broadly independent of airvelocity over the surface of the indoor material/product. Thiswill re

48、main true provided the surface air velocity exceeds theminimum velocity required to prevent build up of vapor-phasecontaminants at the surface of the indoor material/product (seeAppendix X4).6.4.2 Provided the dominant emission mechanism from amaterial/product is internal diffusion, it is therefore

49、possible tocompare area specific emission rates generated from emissioncells under different air flow conditions or to compare areaspecific emission rate data generated by emission cells withthat obtained using test chambers (D5116 or EN/ISO DIS13419-1.) (see Appendix X4).NOTE 8Evaporative emissions predominate during the drying/curingstages of wet-applied products and are significantly effected by thefollowing factors: sample conditioning procedures; timing of the test;loading factor (and related vapor concentration within the cell); and airvelocity o
