The method can also be applied to aged products.1.3 In accordance with the definition of an emission cell, itis also possible to perform nondestructive emission measure-ments on building products on-site in buildings. However, theprocedure f

27、ell. This is thefundamental difference between emission cells and emissionchambers. The air inlet of the emission cell is designed suchthat the flow of air is directed over the surface of the testspecimen.3.2.2.2 DiscussionAn example emission cell is describedin Appendix X2.4. Summary of Practice4.1
28、 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 chambers,
29、 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 adh
30、esivelayers, 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 passed
31、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 are3Available from European Committee for Standard

Theair/vapor exit (exhaust) point is
34、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. Approximately 80 % ofthe flow of air into the cell
35、 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 velocity over thesurface of the test specimen has n
36、o effect on the area specificemission rate (see 6.4). The emission 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 the entire test period, testpieces shall either b
37、e 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 sources.NOTE 5The air flow rate at the surface of the t
38、est 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 emission cells under identical conditions, the
39、non-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 difficult to compare emission datafrom two different small
40、 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 collectingVOCs are analyzedby thermal desorption: gas chromatography (GC); usually withmass spectrometry (MS) and flame ioni
41、zation detection (FID)to identify and quantify the target volatile organic compoundsas described in Practice D6196, ISO 16000-6 or ISO 16017-1.The measured masses of volatile organic compounds retainedby the sorbent tubes are then used to determine the area specificemission rates of the material or
42、product. Alternative samplingand analytical techniques are used for formaldehyde (and forother carbonyls) as described in Test Method D5197.5. Significance and Use5.1 Indoor materials/products are products or materials usedfor construction works or in the indoor environment. The areaspecific emissio
43、n 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 compare and catego-rize different indoor materials/produc
44、ts 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) or emissions gener-ated by chemical degradation of the in
45、door material/productcaused by specific atmospheric agents such as water, ozone orNOx).6. Principles6.1 General Principles:6.1.1 Area specific emission rates at a given lapsed time (t)are calculated from the masses of target volatile organiccompounds collected on the sample tubes, the flow of airpum
46、ped 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 function ofthe emission cell air concentrations for each VOC and
47、 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 dominant emission mechanism isevaporation (external diffusion
48、) (see 6.4).6.2 Using Emission Data to Estimate Contribution to Atmo-spheric VOC Concentration Indoors:6.2.1 Provided the area specific air flow rate over the surfaceof the test specimen is similar to that found in the builtenvironment, and provided the surface of the indoor material/product is suff
49、iciently 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 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 Data:6.3.1 Provided the test conditions are duplicated, area spe-cific emission rate data generated from the
