This Appendix gives the test method for the formaldehyde content of automotive
interior decoration textiles (including woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, non-woven
fabrics) and synthetic leather materials, which are applicable to the
determination of formaldehyde content in the automotive interior decorative
textiles (including woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, and non-woven fabrics),

B.2 Principle
Hang a specimen of a certain mass and size in a sealed polyethylene bottle
with a capacity of 1 L filled with distilled water. After being treated at a certain
temperature for a certain period of time, it is cooled; the amount of
formaldehyde as absorbed in distilled water is measured by acetylacetone
spectrophotometry (the measured formaldehyde shall be divided by the dry
weight of the specimen).
In an aqueous solution, formaldehyde reacts with acetylacetone and
ammonium ions to produce 3.5-diacetyl-1.4-dihydrolutidine. The product is
yellow, the absorption rate of which is maximum at 412 nm.

B.5 Calibration curve
B.5.1 Preparation of formaldehyde standard solution
Add 20 ml of formaldehyde standard solution, 25 ml of iodine solution and 10
ml of sodium hydroxide solution to a 250 ml conical flask and mix. After placing
it in the dark for 15 min, add 15 ml of sulfuric acid to the mixed solution. The
excess iodine is back-titrated by the use of sodium thiosulfate solution. At the
end of the titration, add a few drops of starch solution (to be heated and
dissolved by an electric furnace) as an indicator, to determine the volume of
sodium thiosulfate solution as consumed when the formaldehyde standard
solution is used for the test.
Mix 20 ml of distilled water, 25 ml of iodine solution, and 10 ml of sodium
hydroxide solution. After letting it stand for 15 min in the dark, add 15 ml of
sulfuric acid. The excess iodine is back-titrated by the sodium thiosulfate
solution. At the end of the titration, add a few drops of starch solution (to be
heated and dissolved by an electric furnace) as an indicator, to determine the
volume of sodium thiosulfate solution consumed in the blank test.
Use formula (B.1) to calculate the concentration of formaldehyde standard
solution:
Where:
c(HCHO) - The concentration of formaldehyde standard solution, mg/l;
V0 - The volume of sodium thiosulfate solution consumed during the blank
test, ml;
V - The volume of sodium thiosulfate solution consumed in the test by the
use of formaldehyde standard solution, ml;
c(Na2S2O3) - The concentration of sodium thiosulfate solution, mol/l.
B.5.2 Preparation of formaldehyde calibration solution
From the prepared formaldehyde standard solution, use a pipette to remove a
certain volume of formaldehyde standard solution into a 1000 ml volumetric
flask, which contains 15 mg of formaldehyde (this volume can be calculated
from the concentration of the formaldehyde standard solution that has been
accurately determined). Add distilled water to dilute to 1000 ml. The prepared
formaldehyde calibration solution contains 15 µg formaldehyde per ml.
B.5.3 Determination of calibration curve
Take six 100 ml volumetric flasks. From the formaldehyde calibration solution,
remove 5 ml, 10 ml, 20 ml, 50 ml, 100 ml in sequence. Pour them into a 100 ml
volumetric flask, including a 100 ml blank specimen bottle. Respectively add
distilled water to dilute it to 100 ml. The concentration of formaldehyde (µg/ml)
in these 6 volumetric flasks is 0, 0.75, 1.5, 3, 7.5, 15, respectively.
Take six 50 ml volumetric flasks. Use a pipette to remove 10 ml from each of
the six volumetric flasks for diluted formaldehyde calibration solution. Transfer
them into 50 ml volumetric flasks, respectively. The sampling sequence starts
with the lowest concentration. Pipette it from low to high. In this way, use pipette
to add 10 ml of acetylacetone solution and 10 ml of ammonium acetate solution
to each volumetric flask. Close the cap tightly, heat it in a 40 °C water bath for
15 minutes. Take out the 6 volumetric flasks. Cool it to room temperature (about
1 h) in the dark. Then use a spectrophotometer to measure the absorbance of
the solutions in these 6 volumetric flasks. Take the measured absorbance of
the formaldehyde calibration solution as the abscissa and the corresponding
concentration of the formaldehyde solution as the ordinate to make a curve.
The curve slope coefficient value is the correction factor f. Normally R2 > 0.995
means that the calibration slope is valid.
The calibration curve shall be checked once a month.
B.6 Test procedure
B.6.1 Specimen
Take 3 specimens with a length of 100 mm and a width of 40 mm, of which 1
specimen is used to determine the water content and 2 specimens are used to
determine the formaldehyde content. When sampling, ensure that the surface
of each specimen is free from contamination.
If the test of the specimen cannot be carried out immediately, it shall be stored
in a cool and sealed condition, wherein the amount of air shall be as small as
possible; the storage time shall not exceed 5 days.
B.6.2 Water content
Use an electronic balance to weigh the mass of the specimen m1 (accurate to
1 mg). Put the specimen in a constant temperature oven at (103 ± 2) °C for 24
hours. Take the specimen out and place it in a drying dish to cool to room
temperature. Then weigh the specimen mass m0. Calculate the water content
(%) according to formula (B.2):
Water content (H) = (m1 - m0) / m0 x 100% ... (B.2)

obtained from at least 3 measurements by an empty sample bottle. The blank
value and the quantification of the calibration result shall be consistent and
reproducible.
Note: In order to keep the chromatographic column free of impurities, the
chromatographic column shall be heated to 200 °C at least once a week and
kept for 15 minutes.
C.4.5 Calibration

Basic calibration: 7 concentration points are 0.1 g, 0.5 g, 1 g, 5 g, 10 g, 50 g,
100 g acetone/liter n-butanol.
Controlled calibration: At least three concentrations of 0.5 g, 5 g, 50 g
acetone/liter n-butanol solutions shall be prepared.
Note: Before calibration, the n-butanol used shall have no peaks and occurs at
the same time with acetone.
C.4.5.2 Calibration cycle
When a new separation column is installed or there are changes in the
instrument (such as replacing the liner, cleaning the FID nozzle, changing the
basic parameters, etc.), use 7 concentrations for basic calibration;
At least 3 concentrations shall be used for controlled calibration every 4 weeks;
Take ABS as the quality control sample; make the mean control chart after each
calibration curve is made; use X ± 2S as the control line. After that, test the ABS
value every time the sample is tested. If the value exceeds the control line, it
needs make a three-point linearity and retest the sample.
C.4.5.3 Calibration method
During calibration measurement, use a 5 µl syringe to take (2 ± 0.02) µl
standard solutions at various concentrations (no bubbles in the syringe) into a
10 ml headspace bottle (the volume taken shall be adjusted accordingly based
on the actual volume of the headspace bottle), then use a polyfluoroethylene
bottle cap to immediately seal the headspace bottle;
After the calibration sample is subjected to a constant temperature conditioning
