This paper presents measurements of SVOCs (semi-volatile organic compounds) emitted from building materials, household electric appliances, and products in a room. Until now many reports have been published on the emission test chamber method for measuring VOCs (volatile organic compounds), whereas there are very few reports on the measurement of SVOCs In this paper, we apply the thermal desorption test chamber method that we developed to measurements of SVOCs. This method can measure correctly the emission rate of SVOCs emitted from materials under actual room air temperature conditions.
