Abstract

In today's world, where most of the time is spent indoors, determining the indoor air quality and making suggestions is essential in protecting the user's health. Pollutants that reduce indoor air quality can be listed as carbon dioxide, bioaerosols, particulate matter and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These pollutants can be released from many sources, such as building materials, adhesives, paints or cleaning agents. In particular, building materials reduce the air quality of the space by releasing VOCs with the highest and then decreasing acceleration from the installation and can harm human health in case of prolonged exposure. The study aims to determine the volatile organic compounds released into the interior space after installing laminate flooring, which is frequently used as a floor covering in houses, and to control them according to threshold values. As a result, it has been determined that the VOCs emitted by the laminate flooring, which decreases and continues from the installation and the VOCs values measured in the initial phase were reached 28 days after the installation of the laminate flooring.
