18、d50 % relative humidity. The test closely simulates practical conditions and can be performed on a laboratory scale.Good correlation is obtained with values obtained on samples of the same material in a 40 m3test chamber. Themethod, which is simple to perform, is therefore suitable for the prelimina

19、ry determination of limits that have to beadhered to.2 Normative referencesThe following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of thisInternational Standard.

28、t chamber (desiccator).The desiccator is set up in an air-conditioned room so that air from the room can be passed first through thedesiccator and then into a water trap where formaldehyde (HCHO) is absorbed. The water in the water trap ischanged at regular intervals, and the formaldehyde concentrat

29、ion c is determined photometrically by theacetylacetone method or another suitable method. The test is continued until the value measured for c no longerchanges (see 3.1).

30、nation of formaldehydeThe acetylacetone method has been chosen as the preferred method. Other methods of determination, e.g. afluorimetric method, may be used instead of the photometric method with acetylacetone, provided they can beshown to give equivalent results.

Transfer the dilutedsolution into a 1 000 ml volumetric flask, make up to the mark with water and mix well.Determine the formaldehyde content of this solution as follows:To 20

40、ml of the formaldehyde stock solution add 25 ml of iodine solution c(I2) = 0,05 mol/l, corresponding to12,69 g/l of I2 and 10 ml of sodium hydroxide solution c(NaOH) = 1 mol/l, corresponding to 40,00 g/l of NaOH.After five minutes, add 11 ml of hydrochloric acid c(HCl) = 1 mol/l, corresponding to 36
