Evaluation of Formaldehyde Reference Material for Chamber Emission Testing

July 22, 2018
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Na Li, Wenhao Chen
Formaldehyde reference materials are being developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for use in regulatory emission testing certification programs. Emission rates for a prototype formaldehyde reference material were determined

Simmering Sauces! Elevated Formaldehyde Concentrations from Gas Stove Burners

July 22, 2018
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Mengyan Gong
Formaldehyde is listed as a human carcinogen, and can be formed as a primary by-product during combustion processes. Past studies have not detected elevated formaldehyde concentrations from gas stoves, perhaps due to the time averaging nature of previous

Ventilation, IAQ and Filtration in a Net Zero Energy House

May 24, 2018
Author(s)
Andrew K. Persily, Lisa C. Ng, Dustin G. Poppendieck, Steven J. Emmerich
The Net Zero Energy Residential Test Facility (NZERTF) was constructed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to support the development and adoption of cost-effective net zero energy designs and technologies. The 250 m2 two-story

Balancing Energy and IAQ: NIST Net-Zero Energy Residential Test Facility

April 18, 2018
Author(s)
Lisa C. Ng, Dustin G. Poppendieck, William S. Dols, Brian P. Dougherty, Steven J. Emmerich
Buildings used 39 % of all energy used in the United States in 2017, with residential buildings and commercial buildings accounting for 20 % and 19% (EIA 2018) respectively. Zero energy buildings have the potential to help extend and accelerate the recent

Evaluation of a Formaldehyde Emissions Reference Material

September 5, 2017
Author(s)
Dustin Poppendieck, Mengyan Gong
The development and use of low-volatile organic compounds (VOCs) building materials and products is a key strategy to reduce ventilation and energy use in buildings while preserving the health and sustainability of the indoor environment. Labelling and

Measuring Temperature in Emission Testing Micro-chambers

October 24, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Edwin Guillermo, Havishk Tripathi
ASTM subcommittee D22.05 on Indoor Air is working to finalize WK40293: Standard Test Method for Estimating Chemical Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam (SPF) Insulation Using Micro-Scale Environmental Test Chambers. One issue in WK40293 is determining

Characterization of Emissions from a Non-Ideal Spray Polyurethane Foam Sample

October 17, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Mengyan Gong, Lauren E. Lawson, Steven J. Emmerich
Many homeowners and government programs are using insulating products, such as SPF, at a growing rateto increase the energy efficiency of their residences and other constructed buildings. Retrofitting or addition of foam insulation in new construction is

Final Report - Characterization of Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam

October 17, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Andrew K. Persily, Steven J. Nabinger
This report summarizes NIST activities under the FY2013 interagency agreement between the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The objective of that agreement is to develop testing and

Flame Retardant Emissions from Spray Polyurethane Foam Insulation

October 17, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin G. Poppendieck, Angelica A. Connor, Matthew P. Schlegel, Adam P. Blickley
The desire to build more energy efficient homes in the United States has led to the expansion of the residential spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation industry. Upon application of SPF, reacting chemicals form expanding polyurethane foam that fills

Lessons Learned from Spray Polyurethane Foam Emission Testing using Micro-chambers

October 16, 2016
Author(s)
Dustin Poppendieck, Mengyan Gong, Lauren E. Lawson
Both governmental agencies and the SPF industry consortium have sought more information on potential chemical emissions from SPF to better understand any potential occupant exposures and health impacts. This research was designed to contribute to the
