The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
14、 committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with
15、 the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft Internat
16、ional Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be

21、ervedBS ISO 12219-3:2012ISO 12219-3:2012(E)IntroductionVolatile organic compounds (VOCs) are widely used in industry and may be emitted by many everyday products and materials. They have attracted attention in recent years because of their impact on indoor air quality. After homes and workplaces, pe
22、ople spend a lot of time in their vehicles. It is important to determine the material emissions of interior parts and to reduce them to an acceptable level, if required. Therefore it is necessary to obtain comprehensive and reliable information about the types of organic compounds in the interior ai
23、r of vehicles and also their concentrations.Monitoring emissions from vehicle trim components can be performed in several ways and the approach selected depends upon the desired outcome and the material type. For example, to obtain emissions data from complete assemblies (e.g. a dashboard or seat),
24、it is necessary to employ emissions chambers or bags that have sufficient volume to house the complete assembly (typically 1 m3). Such tests may take several hours or even days to perform, depending on specified equilibration times and the requirements of the relevant test protocol.This part of ISO
25、12219 outlines a method of measuring the types and levels of VOCs emitted using micro-scale chambers (References 24). These allow qualitative and semiquantitative screening of product emissions after only minutes, rather than hours or days, of equilibration. Their capacity is limited so they are bes
26、t suited to small assemblies or representative samples of homogeneous vehicle interior parts and materials. Multiple test specimens can also be readily evaluated from the same sample if required. Micro-scale chambers can provide an ideal quick screening tool for quality control of production and oth
27、er in-house tests by manufacturers. They offer a complementary approach to large chamber or sampling bag approaches.ISO 16000-3, ISO 16000-5,5ISO 16000-6, ISO 16000-9,6ISO 16000-10,7ISO 16000-11,8ISO 16000-24,9ISO 16000-25,10as well as ISO 16017-111and ISO 16017-2,12 also focus on VOC measurements.

29、user of this part of ISO 12219 to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. National regulations for precautions shall be followed.1 ScopeThis part of ISO 12219 specifies a fast, qualitative and semiquantitative screenin
30、g method for vapour-phase organic compounds (volatile and some semi-volatile) released from vehicle trim materials under simulated real-use conditions using micro-scale test chambers. This method is intended for evaluating new car interior trim components but can, in principle, also be applied to us
31、ed car components.Target analytes include VOCs (conventionally defined as organic compounds in the volatility range of n-hexane to n-hexadecane) and volatile carbonyl compounds such as formaldehyde. The specified analytical procedure for VOCs is ISO 16000-6 and for formaldehyde and some other light
32、carbonyl compounds is ISO 16000-3.NOTE 1 Some compounds more volatile than n-hexane and less volatile than n-hexadecane can also be analysed (for more information, see: ISO 16000-6:2011, Annex D; ISO 16017-1;11and Annex E).NOTE 2 For dry, homogeneous materials, results from tests of volatile organic
33、 emissions carried out using micro-scale chambers on newly manufactured products have been found to correlate well with data obtained using standard (reference) methods and conventional emission test chambers (ISO 12219-4, VDA 2761and ISO 16000-96) or test cells (ISO 16000-107). Correlation with emi
34、ssion data obtained using bags (ISO 12219-2) has also been reported. The practice specified in this part of ISO 12219 is therefore complementary to existing standards.This part of ISO 12219 provides third party test laboratories and manufacturing industry with a cost-effective approach for:a) monito
35、ring and screening VOC emissions as part of routine quality control;b) monitoring product uniformity or conformity between formal certification tests;c) comparing emissions from products within a range (e.g. different colours or patterns);d) evaluating prototype, “low-emission” materials or products

40、rial4 PrincipleThe principle of the test is to determine the area (or mass) specific emission rate of VOCs emitted from automotive products. The test is performed in a micro-scale test chamber at a constant temperature and flow rate. The surface area (or mass) of the sample in the micro-scale test c
41、hamber is constant and, by measuring the mass or vapour-phase concentrations of emitted compounds, the area (or mass) specific emission rates of VOCs from the product under test can be determined at a given time, t (see Clause 10).The results can be used to assess product performance with respect to
42、 emission levels either by comparison with control levels or by comparing the data with results from other products or batches of product.5 Apparatus5.1 General. General specifications and requirements, which apply to all types of micro-scale chambers, are given in 5.1 to 5.5. General micro-scale ch
43、amber principles are also summarized in Annex A and specific micro-scale chamber examples are given in Annexes B to D.The following key micro-scale chamber components are required: micro-scale chamber apparatus; heating mechanism; clean gas supply and optional humidification system,NOTE Most samples
44、 contain sufficient inherent humidity to facilitate formaldehyde screening, according to ISO 16000-3, over the short duration of a micro-scale chamber test. Therefore humidification is normally not required for this screening method. appropriate monitoring and control systems (to ensure that the tes
45、t is carried out according to specified conditions); appropriate vapour sampling tubes.5.2 Micro-scale chamber apparatus construction materials. Micro-scale test chambers range in size from 30 cm3to 1 l (e.g. 44,5 ml, see Annex B). They are designed to operate at ambient or elevated temperatures and
46、 to permit the testing of vapour-phase organic emissions from various types of vehicle interior trim components, construction products, and consumer goods.The micro-scale chamber apparatus can comprise one or multiple sealable, micro-scale chambers constructed of inert, non-emitting and non-absorbin

In all cases, the requirements specified in 5.4 and 5.5 shall be fulfilled.Any sealing materials e.g. gaskets or O-rings used for sealing the doors or lids of micro-scale chambers, shall b
