EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 16000-24 testing. This standard specifies a general laboratory test method for the assessment of reduction in VOC concentration by absorbent building materials. This method applies to boards, wallpapers, carpets, paint products and other building materials. The sorption of these target compounds, ie VOCs, can be achieved by adsorption, absorption and chemical adsorption.
The performance of the material regarding its ability to reduce the VOC concentration in indoor air is evaluated by measuring the area-specific reduction ratio and the saturation mass per area. The first directly indicates material performance in relation to VOC reduction at a given time; the second is about the ability to sustain that performance.
Sorptive building materials are marketed in the form of sheet and cardboard products to remove airborne pollutants through physical sorption or chemical reaction.
Harmonized test methods for assessing absorbent effects are important for the comparative assessment of the performance of absorbent building materials used to reduce levels of indoor air pollutants.
The performance of a building material, i.e., the test material, relative to its ability to reduce the concentration of target VOCs (excluding formaldehyde) is evaluated by monitoring the decrease of vapor concentration within a test chamber containing a test sample of that material. The test includes an evaluation of both the material's initial performance and how long that performance has been maintained. Target compounds are VOCs (excluding formaldehyde) detected in the test chamber inlet and outlet air.
