Potential of select intermediate-volatility organic compounds and consumer products for secondary organic aerosol and ozone formation under relevant urban conditions
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Atmospheric Environment"
DOI: 10.1016/j.atmosenv.2017.12.019
Abstract: Emissions of certain low vapor pressure-volatile organic compounds (LVP-VOCs) are considered exempt to volatile organic compounds (VOC) regulations due to their low evaporation rates. However, these compounds may still play a role in ambient secondary… read more here.

Emission rates of chlorinated volatile organics from new and used consumer products found during vapor intrusion investigations: Impact on indoor air concentrations
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Environmental Forensics"
DOI: 10.1080/15275922.2018.1475433
Abstract: Abstract Consumer products can emit chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) that complicate vapor intrusion (VI) assessments. Assessment protocols acknowledge the need to remove these products during VI investigations, but they can be problematic to identify… read more here.
