[Characterization of volatile organic compounds from indoor materials].
Volatile organic compounds emitted from eight indoor materials including paint, wallpaper glue, maticolor coat, floorwax floor covering and air freshener and were analyzed by headspace GC-FID and GC-MS. About 3-30 organic compounds were detected from each material. It was shown that the emitted compounds and emission rate from different materials were different. The emitted compounds included paraffin, olefine, alcohol, aldehyde, ether, ester and aromatic compounds. The results of dynamic experiments in test chamber showed that the chamber concentration of volatile organic compounds from paint vs. time data follows a double exponent equation.
