1、Designation: E1333 14Standard Test Method forDetermining Formaldehyde Concentrations in Air andEmission Rates from Wood Products Using a LargeChamber1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1333; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,

2、 in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method measures the formaldehyde concentra-tion in air and emission ra

3、te from wood products containingformaldehyde under conditions designed to simulate productuse (see 11.5 and Note 9). The concentration in air andemission rate is determined in a large chamber under specifictest conditions of temperature and relative humidity. Thegeneral procedures are also intended

4、for testing product com-binations at product-loading ratios and at air-exchange ratestypical of the indoor environment (1).2The products tested, theloading ratios and the air exchange rates employed are de-scribed in the test report.1.2 This test method determines the average formaldehydeconcentrati

5、on in air and emission rate from a number of largesize samples. The average concentration and emission ratereported, thus, will not provide information on higher or loweremitting panels in the test lot.1.3 This method is primarily used for testing newly manu-factured panel products that are shipped

6、for testing eitherseal-wrapped in polyethylene or with waster sheets, or withboth. When this test method is used for evaluating other thannewly manufactured panel products (after original application,installation or use), the method of packaging and shipping theproduct for testing shall be described

7、 in the test report.1.4 The quantity of formaldehyde in the air sample takenfrom the chamber is determined by an adaptation of theNational Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)chromotropic acid test procedure. If another analytical proce-dure is used to determine the quantity of forma

8、ldehyde in theair sample, that procedure shall give results of equivalent orgreater accuracy and precision than the adapted chromotropicacid procedure. Detailed procedures based on acetylacetone,pararosaniline (see Test Method D5221), 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) (see Test Method D5197) and3-me

9、thyl-2-benzothiazoline (MBTH) (seeTest Method D5014)have been found to give results equivalent or greater inaccuracy and precision than chromotropic acid. The test reportshall note the analytical procedure employed.NOTE 13The chromotropic acid analytical procedure described in thistest method is app

10、licable for testing urea-formaldehyde bonded woodproducts. According to NIOSH (4th Edition, 8/15/94), the low end of theworking range for the chromotropic acid analytical procedure is 0.02 ppm.A more sensitive analytical procedure is recommended for testing woodpanel products where formaldehyde conc

11、entrations in air are anticipated tobe at or below this level. DNPH is recognized as such a method.1.5 This test method is used to determine compliance withrequirements such as those established for building materialsby the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development(HUD) Rules and Regulations,

Significance and Summary of Test Method4.1 Significance and Use:4.1.1 Limitations on formaldehyde concentrations in airhave been established for some building products permanentlyinstalled in manufactured and conventional homes. This testmethod provides a standard means of testing typical produ

27、ctsizes, such as 1.2 by 2.4 m (4 by 8 ft) sheets, at productloadings consistent with product end use.4.2 Summary of Test Method:4.2.1 This test method incorporates a chamber of 22 m3(800 ft3) minimum size to evaluate formaldehyde concentra-tions in air and emission rates from building products over

28、aspecified duration of time. This test method employs a singleset of environmental conditions but different product loadingratios to assess formaldehyde concentrations in air and emis-sion rates from certain wood products. Conditions controlled inthe procedure are as follows:4.2.1.1 Conditioning of

29、specimens prior to testing,4.2.1.2 Exposed surface area of the specimens in the testchamber,4.2.1.3 Test chamber temperature and relative humidity,4.2.1.4 Number of air changes per hour, and4.2.1.5 Air circulation within the chamber.4.2.1.6 At the end of a 16 to 20-h period in the test chamber,the a

30、ir is sampled and the concentration of formaldehyde in airand emission rate are determined.NOTE 3Care must be exercised in the extension of the results toformaldehyde concentrations in air and emission rates from productsunder different conditions of air change rate or loading ratio, or both.5.
