Abstract

This study is measured the concentration of SVOC in settled dust in kindergartens and also conducted to measure about the emission rates of SVOC from PVC Flooring, Toy, Shoes and stationeries by using micro-chamber. As results, mostly DBP, DEHP and DINP were detected in settled dust collected in kindergartens. Besides, we found out that emitted DBP, DEHP and DINP from PVC flooring through a micro-chamber test. A case of Toy, Shoes and stationeries, D6, DEP, C16, DBP, DOA and DEHP were detected. Among the chemicals that have been detected, DBP and DEHP were higher than another unit. But, DINP was not detected with toys, shoes and stationeries.
