Editorial summary

This study develops an SPME-GC/MS workflow for characterising volatile emissions from historic plastics and rubbers. FLEC-SPME appears through a cited earlier method rather than as an instrument used in the reported experiments.

Original editorial summary (non-verbatim), based on the publisher record and the UCL repository manuscript.

FLEC use

FLEC mention, comparison or reference

The authors developed and tested an SPME-GC/MS procedure for heritage polymers. The manuscript cites prior FLEC-SPME work, but does not report operating a FLEC in this study.
