DANSK DSF/ISO/FDIS 12219-8 [ Draft ]

This standard is intended for the automotive industry. More specifically as a guide for producers and testing laboratories for the selection, preparation, conditioning, packaging, labeling, transportation and storage for but not limited to: VOC testing, Fogging testing, and Odour testing. This standard pays special attention to materials sensitive to contamination and/or rapid volatilization of emissions in order to achieve repeatable and accurate test results. Also vehicle interior materials change frequently and this standard supports the vehicle product development cycle. Testing methods may specifically define the handling and packaging conditions for the material to be analyzed. In these cases, follow the method as closely as possible. Use this standard as a guide, where the protocol for handling and packaging the samples between part production and testing may be undefined.
