    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes a method for the determination of single volatile organic compounds (VOC) and of the total amount of volatile organic compounds (TVOC[EN 13999]) in the exhaust air of an emission test chamber after application of a low-solvent or solvent-free adhesive as defined in EN 923:2005+A1:2008.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of single volatile organic compounds (VOC) and of the total amount of volatile organic compounds (TVOCEN 13999) in the exhaust air of an emission test chamber after application of a low-solvent or solvent-free adhesive as defined in EN 923:2005+A1:2008. The method is based on use of a solid sorbent with subsequent desorption and gas chromatographic analysis. The method is applicable to measurement of non-polar and slightly polar VOC.
