Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of indoor environmental quality detection, and particularly relates to an environmental chamber testing method for measuring VOC adsorption / emission characteristics of flexible porous materials. Background Art
[0002] Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are widely present in various indoor decorative materials, such as wood-based panels, and have serious negative impacts on human health. With the booming textile industry, more and more fabrics are being used in interior decoration, leading to a growing demand for fabrics such as sofas, curtains, and carpets. In indoor environments, fabrics like curtains, carpets, and sofas have porous structures and are classified as flexible porous materials due to their softness and deformability. Flexible porous materials have high porosity, large surface area, and high surface roughness, which enhance their ability to adsorb indoor gaseous VOCs. The re-emission of adsorbed VOCs can cause secondary indoor air pollution. Furthermore, flexible porous materials such as clothing and mattresses come into direct contact with the human body, resulting in extensive exposure and prolonged duration. Therefore, flexible porous materials are a key medium for indoor VOC transport and exposure. Understanding the VOC adsorption and emission characteristics of flexible porous materials is crucial for accurately predicting indoor VOC concentrations and developing appropriate control and purification strategies. The distribution coefficient (K) and diffusion coefficient (D) are characteristic parameters of VOC mass transfer in flexible porous materials, which directly affect the VOC adsorption / emission characteristics of flexible porous materials and the indoor VOC pollution distribution.
[0003] Research on experimental methods for measuring VOC emission parameters has been ongoing for decades. For example, fluidized bed desorption and ambient temperature extraction methods are used to determine the initial releasable concentration (C0), while wet cup, double chamber, and microbalance methods are used to determine D and K. However, these methods require complex experimental systems, are time-consuming, suffer from high errors, and can only measure one parameter at a time. To more quickly and accurately measure VOC emission parameters, researchers have proposed multi-equilibrium regression, multiple emission regression, and multi-gas-to-solid ratio methods. While these methods shorten experimental time and can simultaneously measure two emission parameters, they still require separate experiments to measure D. The closed-chamber C-history method and the direct-flow chamber C-history method can simultaneously measure three emission parameters, but they have certain limitations on the choice of experimental data and a complex solution process. The improved C-history method can utilize all experimental data for multi-parameter fitting, but this can result in multiple solutions. These methods still suffer from complex experimental procedures and difficult data analysis and processing, and they all primarily test hard building materials. Rigid building materials typically act as sources in indoor environments, emitting VOCs. Flexible, porous materials, on the other hand, act as both sinks and secondary sources. They not only adsorb VOCs in the indoor environment but also release them into the air when concentrations decrease, prolonging pollution and increasing concentrations. Therefore, existing methods for measuring VOC emission characteristics, primarily targeting rigid building materials, are not applicable to flexible, porous materials.
[0004] Currently, there is limited research on methods for measuring VOC mass transfer parameters for flexible porous materials. Traditional methods for measuring VOC emission parameters for rigid building materials are not fully applicable to flexible porous materials such as fabrics. Therefore, selecting appropriate measurement methods for the VOC adsorption / emission characteristics of flexible porous materials, and thereby accurately determining VOC mass transfer parameters for these materials, remains a leading concern for researchers in this field.

[0029] The present invention discloses an environmental chamber testing method for measuring the VOC adsorption / emission characteristics of flexible porous materials, which is mainly suitable for closed environmental chambers. The VOC distribution coefficient K and diffusion coefficient D of a fabric sample are key parameters that determine its adsorption and emission characteristics for indoor VOC gases. The present invention utilizes an environmental chamber to provide a constant temperature and humidity environment, conducts adsorption and emission tests on fabric samples in a closed state, and measures the VOC concentration in the environmental chamber at each stage. By establishing mass conservation equations for different adsorption and emission stages, a correlation formula between the VOC mass transfer characteristic parameters of the fabric sample and the VOC concentration in the environmental chamber is obtained. Combined with the analytical solution of the gas phase VOC concentration, the distribution coefficient K and diffusion coefficient D of the fabric sample VOC are obtained using algebraic calculation and nonlinear fitting. Through this method, the VOC adsorption / emission characteristics of flexible porous materials can be quickly and accurately measured.
[0030] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the method of the present invention mainly comprises the following steps:
[0031] Step 1: Prepare two equal volumes and concentrations of VOC solutions in the same beaker, named the first beaker 6 and the second beaker 10, respectively. Seal and store in a dark place for future use. m (m 3 ) is a flexible porous material sample to be tested, named fabric sample 2.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, the volume of the VOC solution in the first beaker 6 and the second beaker 10 does not exceed 3 mL, and the concentration of the solution is 0.1 mg / mL to 1 mg / mL. The fabric sample 2 is pre-treated before the experiment to default to not emit VOC at room temperature.
[0033] In step 2, place the first beaker 6 containing the VOC solution into a clean, sealed environmental test chamber 1. Keep the chamber sealed and turn on the circulation fan 108 to maintain a constant temperature and humidity. The temperature and humidity parameters in the chamber are then recorded using a wireless temperature and humidity recorder 3 and a thermocouple temperature sensor 5. This is referred to as operating condition 1.
[0034] In this embodiment of the present invention, the internal air volume of the environmental test chamber 1 is 30L, and the ratio of the chamber air volume to the volume of the fabric sample 2 to be tested ranges from 100 to 1000. The chamber air temperature is controlled within a range of 10°C to 40°C, and the relative humidity is controlled within a range of 30% to 90%, with a temperature accuracy of ±0.5°C and a relative humidity accuracy of ±5%. The walls of the environmental test chamber 1 are made of stainless steel to minimize any impact on the experimental results. A circulating fan 108 is installed at the top of the chamber to maintain an air velocity of 0.1 to 0.3 m / s, ensuring a uniform distribution of VOC concentrations in the air.
[0035] Step 3: Let the first beaker 6 stand for a sufficient time until the VOC solution therein is completely volatilized and the parameters in the closed environment chamber reach a balanced state. At this time, the VOC gas equilibrium concentration C in the closed environmental test chamber 1 is measured. equ,1 , mg / m 3 . C equ,1 It represents the equilibrium concentration of VOC in the closed environmental chamber after the VOC solution is placed in the closed environmental chamber.
[0036] In the present invention, the VOC concentration is detected by an online gas analysis mass spectrometer 7, the single sampling volume does not exceed 30 mL, and the sampling frequency is not less than 1 hour each time.
[0037] Step 4: Open the environmental test chamber 1, take out the first beaker 6, wipe the inner wall of the chamber with acetone solution, keep the chamber door open and let in clean air until the background VOC concentration is lower than the detection limit.
[0038] Step 5: Place the fabric sample 2 and the second beaker 10 together in a clean and sealed environmental test chamber 1 , close the chamber door to keep it sealed, turn on the chamber circulation fan 108 , and maintain the temperature and humidity in the chamber at working condition 1 .
[0039] Step 6: Let the second beaker 10 stand for a sufficient time until the VOC solution therein is completely volatilized and the parameters in the chamber reach a balanced state. At this time, the concentration of VOC adsorbed by the fabric sample 2 reaches the equilibrium value. The VOC gas equilibrium concentration C in the chamber at this time is measured by the gas online analysis mass spectrometer 7. equ,2 , mg / m 3 . C equ,2 It represents the equilibrium concentration of VOC in the closed environmental chamber after the VOC solution and the fiber fabric sample to be tested are placed in the closed environmental chamber.
[0040] Step 7: Establish the following equation based on the law of conservation of mass:
[0041] C equ.1 V=C equ.2 V+C0V m (12)
[0042]
[0043] Calculate the initial VOC emitting concentration C0 of fabric sample 2, mg / m 3 C0 represents the VOC equilibrium concentration inside the fiber fabric after the VOC solution and the fiber fabric sample to be tested are placed in a closed environmental chamber, that is, the initial emitting concentration. Where V is the volume of air in the environmental chamber, m 3 .
[0044] Step 8: Open the cabin door, remove the fabric sample 2 from the sealed cabin and quickly put it into a sealed bag to protect it from light. Take out the second beaker 10, wipe the inner wall of the environmental cabin with acetone solution, and introduce clean air into the cabin to flush the environmental test cabin until the background VOC concentration is lower than the detection limit.
[0045] Step 9: Adjust the temperature and humidity in the cabin to working condition 1, and quickly take out the fabric sample 2 from the sealed bag and put it into the cabin. Close the cabin door to keep it sealed, and turn on the circulation fan 108.
[0046] Step 10: The fabric sample 2 is left to stand for a sufficient time to allow the parameters in the closed chamber to reach equilibrium. At this time, the hourly gas phase concentration C of VOC in the closed chamber is measured by the online gas analysis mass spectrometer 7. a,exp (t i ) and equilibrium concentration C equ,3 , mg / m 3 . C equ,3 It represents the equilibrium concentration of VOCs in a closed environmental chamber after the VOC-adsorbed fiber fabric is placed in the closed chamber.
[0047] Step 11, according to the law of conservation of mass, establish the equation as follows:
[0048] C0V m -C equ.3 V=C m V m (14)
[0049] Where C m is the VOC concentration inside the fiber fabric, mg / m 3 .
[0050] According to the relationship between VOC concentration on gas-solid surface, the following equation can be further derived:
[0051] C0V m -C equ.3 V=KC equ.3 V m (15)
[0052]
[0053] By solving the equation, the initial VOC emitting concentration C0 and the VOC distribution coefficient K of fabric sample 2 are calculated; where V is the volume of air in the cabin; V m is the volume of fabric sample 2. Substituting the experimental test data into formula (2) and formula (5) to obtain the initial emanable concentration C0 and distribution coefficient K of the fiber fabric sample.
[0054] Step 12: measure the real-time emission concentration of the fabric sample 2 in the closed environment chamber C a,exp (ti ) and the theoretical analytical solution of VOC concentration in the closed cabin C a,cal (t i ) nonlinear fitting to obtain the VOC diffusion coefficient D of fabric sample 2.
[0055] Complete analytical solution for VOC concentration in closed environmental test chamber 1 a,cal (t i )as follows:
[0056]
[0057]
[0058] A n =(Kβ-q n 2 KBi m -1 +1)cos q n -(1+2KBi m -1 )q n sin q n (19)
[0059] Bi m =h m L / D (20)
[0060] Where: β is defined as the material / air volume ratio, and its calculation formula is β=V m / V;
[0061] C a,cal (t i )——VOC concentration in the closed environment chamber, mg / m 3 ;
[0062] L——half the thickness of fabric sample 2, m;
[0063] D——Diffusion coefficient of fabric sample 2, m 2 / s;
[0064] t i ——Durability of emission, s;

[0066] q n ——is the positive root of formula (7), n is a natural number starting from 1;
[0067] h m ——Convective mass transfer coefficient, m / s;
[0068] Bi m——Mass transfer Biot number.
[0069] In step 13, the obtained distribution coefficient K and the initial dispersible concentration C0 are substituted into formula (6). In formula (6), only the diffusion coefficient D is unknown. Therefore, the diffusion coefficient D is nonlinearly fitted using the improved relative least squares method. The calculation formula η of the concentration curve fitting error is as follows:
[0070]
[0071]
[0072]
[0073] Where: J Di ——normalized relative sensitivity coefficient of VOC concentration of the i-th sampling to D;
[0074] w Di ——When D is the only variable, t i The weight of concentration data at time;
[0075] η——fitting error;
[0076] M——the total number of samples in step 6;
[0077] ε——the amplitude of change of D.
[0078] By adjusting the value of the diffusion coefficient D and performing nonlinear fitting using formula (10), the diffusion coefficient D of fabric sample 2 can be determined when the η value is the minimum.
[0079] In a more specific embodiment of the present invention, the formaldehyde emission characteristic parameters of the fabric are measured, and the specifications of the fabric sample 2 are 405mm×205mm×0.6mm (length×width×thickness), and the ratio of the volume of the fabric sample 2 to the volume of the air in the cabin (i.e., the solid-gas ratio) is β=1 / 602. The formaldehyde concentration is calibrated with distilled water to 0.1mg / mL, and 1mL of the formaldehyde aqueous solution is taken each time and placed in a beaker as an emission source. The sampling frequency of the online gas analysis system is set to 15min / time, and the single gas sampling volume is 10mL. During the experiment, the temperature of the environmental chamber is set to 23℃, and the relative humidity is controlled at 50±5%. The fabric sample is subjected to 5 closed environmental chamber adsorption tests, and the corresponding C equ,1 、C equ,2 and C equ,3 Already in Figure 2 Displayed in.

The gas in the chamber can be sampled and analyzed through the sampling port 102, where a flow meter 103 can be set. This test only uses the closed mode of the environmental chamber. In the closed state, the air inlet 107 and the exhaust port 105 are both closed. The wall material of the inner chamber 106 is stainless steel that is inert and non-adsorbent to VOCs, and the gap of the door 104 is sealed with a non-adsorbent sealing strip. A circulating fan 108 is installed on the top of the chamber to ensure that the air flow rate in the chamber is 0.1 to 0.3m / s, so that the VOC concentration in the air is evenly distributed. The fabric sample 2 is suspended in the middle of the environmental chamber by a stainless steel wire 9, and the direction of gas flow is parallel to the surface of the fabric sample 2.

[0084] (4) VOC gas composition and concentration analysis system: When measuring single or mixed VOC gases, the mixed gas in the chamber is sampled through the sampling port 102, and then qualitative and quantitative analysis is performed through the online gas analyzer 7. Finally, all sampled data are stored and processed and analyzed by the computer 8.
[0085] See also Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 In (a), (b), (c), and (d), when the experiment begins, the VOC solution emission test is first conducted in a sealed state. A certain temperature and humidity are set, and the temperature and humidity conditions at this time are recorded as Condition 1.

The gas sampling frequency is 15 minutes per time and the gas sampling volume is 3 mL. When the average formaldehyde concentration changes by no more than 1% within one hour, the gas phase formaldehyde concentration in the environmental chamber is considered to have reached equilibrium. The equilibrium concentration value of the online mass spectrometry gas analysis system at this time is recorded, which is 3.09 mg / m 3 , which is C equ,1 .

Close the door, adjust the temperature and humidity parameters in the environmental chamber to working condition 1, and then place the experimental supplies in the environmental chamber as shown below. Figure 2 (b) The second beaker 10 and the fabric sample 2 were allowed to stand for a sufficient period of time, and the equilibrium formaldehyde concentration in the chamber was measured and recorded by an online mass spectrometry gas analysis system. The value was 1.241 mg / m 3 , which is C equ,2 According to formula (2), the initial radiable concentration C0 is 1113 mg / m 3 , open the door, put the fabric sample 2 into a sealed bag, and take it out. Keep the door open, exhaust the VOC gas in the chamber, and return the environmental chamber to a clean state. At this time, the experimental supplies in the environmental chamber are placed as follows Figure 2 Middle (d).
[0089] After the environmental chamber returns to a clean state, take out the fabric sample 2 from the sealed bag and quickly re-place it on the stainless steel wire in the middle of the environmental chamber. Adjust the temperature and humidity parameters in the environmental chamber to working condition 1. At this time, the experimental supplies in the environmental chamber are placed as follows: Figure 2 (c) Close the door of the environmental chamber, close the air inlet 107 and the exhaust port 105.

At this time, the initial volatile concentration C0 and the distribution coefficient K are both known. When the error η is minimized, D is output, and its value is 4.02×10 -12 m 2 / s.
