Abstract

Many studies demonstrated that materials can be significant emission sources of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that can affect indoor air quality. These compounds are of particular concern because of their potential impact on human health, usually named SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) by new EU Regulations in chemical field [1]. Some of VOCs are also odour compounds and can cause olfactory annoyance for the exposed population. In the present paper experimental results obtained by the application of the conventional methodology, according to the requirements reported in International Standards (ISO 16000), to consumer products will be showed highlighting the risk assessment related to inhalation exposure, integrated with those obtained by dynamic olfactometry and gas-chromatography/olfactometry (GC-O) with the aim of assessing the olfactory impact associated to the same consumer products.
