SANITARY - CHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF HARMFUL SUBSTANCES EVOLVED FROM POLYMERIC MATERIALS IN THE AIR OF LIVING QUARTERS- article

The wide usage of goods from polymeric materials causes contamination of an air of living quarters by harmful substances separated from these materials. According to the data of chromato-mass-spectroscopic researches in an air of living quarters more than 300 different compounds are identified. However, the relatively little number of pollutants, related to classes of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, spirits, ketones, ethers, acetic and methacrylic acids and also formaldehyde and phenol are always identified, irrespectively of a place of realization of researches and conditions. Gas-chromatographic methods of identification of these compounds are viewed.
