Editorial summary

Formaldehyde and TVOC emissions from medium-density fibreboard with several coated and uncoated surface finishes were compared in a 20-litre chamber and in FLEC. The results show how surface treatment changes emissions and that reductions can differ by pollutant and test configuration.

FLEC use

Direct FLEC measurements

The authors explicitly used FLEC and a 20-litre chamber to measure emissions from treated fibreboard samples.
