Quantitative determination of compound content in accordance with DIN EN ISO 11890-2 (Paints and varnishes - Determination of VOC and SVOC contents)

Posted Date:2025/8/19

10.2 Quantitative determination of compound content

10.2.1 Quantification with respect to CSRF

Determine the weight fraction of all such compounds of the product using Formula (4):

where

fi is the weight fraction of compound i in % of the product;

ri is the CSRF for compound i (see 8.3.3);

Ai is the peak area of compound i;

Ais is the peak area of the internal standard;

mis is the mass, in grams, of internal standard in the test sample (see 8.2.1);

ms is the mass, in grams, of the test sample (see 8.2.1).

10.2.2 Quantification with respect to surrogate standard

Determine the weight fraction of all such compounds of the product using Formula (5):

where

fi is the weight fraction of compound i in % of the product;

Ai is the peak area of compound i;

ADEA is the peak area of the surrogate standard;

mDEA is the mass, in grams, of surrogate standard in the test sample (see 8.2.1);

ms is the mass, in grams, of the test sample (see 8.2.1).
