BH GSO ASTM D6330:2022 Scope
1.1 The practice measures the volatile organic compounds
(VOC), excluding formaldehyde, emitted from manufactured
wood-based panels. A pre-screening analysis is used to identify
the VOCs emitted from the panel. Emission factors (that is,
emission rates per unit surface area) for the VOCs of interest
are then determined by measuring the concentrations in a small
environmental test chamber containing a specimen. The test
chamber is ventilated at a constant air change rate under the
standard environmental conditions. For formaldehyde
determination, see Test Method D6007.
1.2 This practice describes a test method that is specific to
the measurement of VOC emissions from newly manufactured
individual wood-based panels, such as particleboard, plywood,
and oriented strand board (OSB), for the purpose of comparing
the emission characteristics of different products under the
standard test condition. For general guidance on conducting
small environmental chamber tests, see Guide D5116.
1.3 VOC concentrations in the environmental test chamber
are determined by adsorption on an appropriate single adsorbent tube or multi-adsorbent tube, followed by thermal desorption and combined gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry (GC/
MS) or gas chromatograph/flame ionization detection (GC/
FID). The air sampling procedure and the analytical method
recommended in this practice are generally valid for the
identification and quantification of VOCs with saturation vapor
pressure between 500 and 0.01 kPa at 25°C, depending on the
selection of adsorbent(s).
