EVALUATION OF A DIFFUSIVE SAMPLER FOR FORMALDEHYDE

A diffusive sampling system, using a commercially available liquid sorbent badge, has been evaluated for the determination of airborne formaldehyde concentrations according to the U.K. Health and Safety Executive protocol. The results of laboratory and field experiments are presented. The results ob...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A diffusive sampling system, using a commercially available liquid sorbent badge, has been evaluated for the determination of airborne formaldehyde concentrations according to the U.K. Health and Safety Executive protocol. The results of laboratory and field experiments are presented. The results obtained using the diffusive sampler during field measurements were about 10% higher overall than those obtained using a conventional pumped sampler.
