Innenraumluftverunreinigungen - Teil 9: Bestimmung der Emission von flüchtigen organischen Verbindungen aus Proben von Bauprodukten und Einrichtungsgegenständen - Emissionsprüfkammerverfahren (ISO 16000-9:2024); Deutsche Fassung EN ISO 16000-9:2024
Overview
This document specifies a general laboratory test method for the determination of the area specific emission rate of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from samples of newly produced building products or furnishing under defined climate conditions. The method can also, in principle, be applied to samples of aged products. The emission data obtained can be used to calculate concentrations in a model room. This document is applicable to various emission test chambers used for the determination of the emission of VOCs from building products or furnishing. Sampling, transport and storage of materials to be tested, and preparation of test specimens are described in ISO 16000-11. Air sampling and analytical methods for the determination of VOCs are specified in ISO 16000-6 and ISO 16017-1. A general description of an emission test chamber is given in Annex C. For the determination of formaldehyde emissions from wood-based panels, refer to EN 717-1:2004. In particular, it should be noted that ISO 16000-9 is also applicable for determining the emission rate of formaldehyde from wood-based panels and other building products. The formaldehyde measurement method is described in ISO 16000-3. In principle, this document can be applied to the study of any gas phase emissions from samples of building products and furnishing. The determination of the emission rates of cut edges is described in Annex D. The assessment of the influence of underfloor heating (Ondol) on emissions is described in Annex E. The responsible national standardization committee is Subcommittee NA 134-04-04-02 UA "Emissionen aus Materialien und Produkten" ("Emissions of materials and products") of the VDI/DIN-Commission on Air Pollution Prevention (KRdL) - Standards Committee.
