This test method measures the formaldehyde concentration in air and emission rate from wood products containing formaldehyde by the use of a large chamber under specific test conditions of temperature and relative humidity, or conditions designed to simulate product use. This method employs a single set of environmental conditions but different product loading ratios to assess formaldehyde concentrations in air and emission rates from certain wood products. The conditions controlled in the procedure are the conditioning of specimens prior to testing, exposed surface area of the specimens in the test chamber, test chamber temperature and relative humidity, number of air changes per hour, and air circulation within the chamber. At the end of a specified time period in the test chamber, the air is sampled, and the concentration of formaldehyde in the air and emission rate are determined.

Significance and Use | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4.1?Significance and Use:? 4.1.1?Limitations on formaldehyde concentrations in air have been established for some building products permanently installed in manufactured and conventional homes. This test method provides a standard means of testing typical product sizes, such as 1.2 m by 2.4 m (4 ft by 8 ft) sheets, at product loadings consistent with product end use. 4.2?Summary of Test Method:? 4.2.1?This test method incorporates a chamber of 22 m3 (800 ft3) minimum size to evaluate formaldehyde concentrations in air and emission rates from building products over a specified duration of time. This test method employs a single set of environmental conditions but different product loading ratios to assess formaldehyde concentrations in air and emission rates from certain wood products. Conditions controlled in the procedure are as follows: 4.2.1.1?Conditioning of specimens prior to testing, 4.2.1.2?Exposed surface area of the specimens in the test chamber, 4.2.1.3?Test chamber temperature and relative humidity, 4.2.1.4?Number of air changes per hour, and 4.2.1.5?Air circulation within the chamber. 4.2.1.6?At the end of a 16 to 20-h period in the test chamber, the air is sampled and the concentration of formaldehyde in air and emission rate are determined. Note 3:?Care must be exercised in the extension of the results
to formaldehyde concentrations in air and emission rates from
products under different conditions of air change rate or loading
ratio, or both.

1.1?This test method measures the formaldehyde concentration in air and emission rate from wood products containing formaldehyde under conditions designed to simulate product use (see 11.5 and Note 9). The concentration in air and emission rate is determined in a large chamber under specific test conditions of temperature and relative humidity. The general procedures are also intended for testing product combinations at product-loading ratios and at air-exchange rates typical of the indoor environment 1.2?This test method determines the average formaldehyde concentration in air and emission rate from a number of large size samples. The average concentration and emission rate reported, thus, will not provide information on higher or lower emitting panels in the test lot. 1.3?This method is primarily used for testing newly manufactured panel products that are shipped for testing either seal-wrapped in polyethylene or with waster sheets, or with both. When this test method is used for evaluating other than newly manufactured panel products (after original application, installation or use), the method of packaging and shipping the product for testing shall be described in the test report. 1.4?The quantity of formaldehyde in the air sample taken from the chamber is determined by an adaptation of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) chromotropic acid test procedure. If another analytical procedure is used to determine the quantity of formaldehyde in the air sample, that procedure shall give results of equivalent or greater accuracy and precision than the adapted chromotropic acid procedure. Detailed procedures based on acetylacetone, pararosaniline (see Test Method D5221), 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) (see Test Method D5197) and 3-methyl-2-benzothiazoline (MBTH) (see Test Method D5014) have been found to give results equivalent or greater in accuracy and precision than chromotropic acid. The test report shall note the analytical procedure employed. Note 1:?1.5?This
test method is used to determine compliance with requirements such
as those established for building materials by the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Rules and Regulations, HUD
24 CFR 3280, for manufactured housing, by Minnesota Statutes
Section 144.495, Environmental Protection Agency Formaldehyde
Emission Standards for Composite Wood Products, EPA TSCA Title VI
40 CFR Section 770, and California Air Resources Board (CARB),
California Code of Regulations sections 93120-93120.12, title 17,
Airborne Toxic Control Measure to Reduce Formaldehyde Emissions
from Composite Wood Products. Measurement results are also used for
comparing concentrations in air and emission rates from different
wood products 1.6?This
test method is not designed for determining general organic
emissions from all indoor materials and products.
Note 2:?ASTM Committee D22 has developed Guide D5116 which describes small-scale
environmental equipment and techniques suitable for determining
organic emissions and emission rates from materials and products
used indoors.
1.7?The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to inch-pound units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard. 1.8?This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.9?This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. |
