Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are common emitting substances in vehicle interior parts and materials, with a wide range of boiling points (50-250°C) and a polarity range ranging from medium to non-polar, at least 200 species. Currently, VOC sampling mainly uses Tenax TA sorbent for collection, which has good stability and is suitable for weakly polar to non-polar substances between C6-C16. But there are many types of VOC substances, and each substance has its unique characteristics. Tenax TA is not suitable for all substances, and it is not the best sorbent choice for substances with medium polarity or low carbon number. In recent years, the vehicle and indoor environmental standards are open to the selection of sorbent, no longer limiting the type of sorbent sorbent, and more sampling tubes mixed with different sorbent types have emerged to achieve the best sampling results. After summarizing the common emitted substances in the car, this article selects 6 common types of sorbents or mixed sorbents for substance collection, and searches for the optimal sorbent type for each substance.
