| Research Abstract |
Semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) such as di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) have caused not only chemical sensitivity but also asthma. SVOCs in indoor air exist in the form of a single molecule (gaseous phase) and adsorbate on airborne dusts (particulate phase) because of their low vapor pressures. However, their partitioning method was not well-established. This study attempted to quantify the partitioning of DEHP in gaseous and particulate phases using a diffusion tube by generating airborne Kanto loam dusts with an ultrasonic atomizer. As a result, it was suggested that DEHP vapor could be adsorbed on the surface of airborne Kanto loam dusts in the manner of Langmuir-type adsorption isotherm under the specific conditions.
