Emission of Volatile Organic Compounds from Furniture Coatings
Abstract
Emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from different types of furniture coatings have been investigated by test chamber studies under dynamic conditions. A total of 15j0 VOCs could be identified in the chamber air. Compound groups occuring most often were aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. hetones, aromatic hydrocarbons, glycols and esters. Special attention was paid to the detection of typical components of coating materials such as acrylic monomers, photoinitiators and other additives. ...
