Editorial summary

A mass-transfer procedure is proposed for estimating the initial VOC concentration, diffusion coefficient and material-air partition coefficient of solvent-based paint. Ventilated-chamber measurements for methylcyclohexane and toluene are used to test the model, but the accessible evidence does not identify the reported chamber as a FLEC.

FLEC use

FLEC mention, comparison or reference

FLEC-related work is present in the paper's methodological literature, but the authors describe their own tests only as ventilated-chamber experiments. There is no explicit evidence that their apparatus was a FLEC.
